Not long tubes and cams. I've personally seen cam only full bolt on big n little 2 valves run 11's for years. <br /><br />I gave my opinion. You said I don't like long tubes. I never did. <br /><br />I have MACs on my 2 valve and they are built well but the quality of coating is shit. The headers were put on 5 years ago and 2 of those years the car was parked outdoors and the moisture ruined them. Again my opinion with my experience they didn't live up to their name. I got what I paid for. <br /><br />If the OP doesn't have cams or gears you'll get better results and any tuner can tune any 2000+ to show all monitors ready to pass smog. Better sound better gains and no laying on your back for hours and hours every 24 months. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>a302juGRnot</b> <br /><small>Member # 10163</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2016,4,21,22,27,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> best headers are going to be any longtubes. up to you if its worth paying for a smog hookup. if not, id just go shorties.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 2016-05-21, 10:32 PM: Message edited by: a302juGRnot ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>92_5.0</b> <br /><small>Member # 7624</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2016,4,23,12,21,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Not only the fact of having to get a hook up and paying whatever they charge, but if you get pulled over for whatever reason and the cop notices the longtubes you are getting a nice fat ref ticket.
