Ordered some flowtech shorties for my 95 5.0 and Saturday they're going on! I ordered them from summit service and price are great. But also be sure to get some DEI spark plug protectors!! About twenty dollars for 8 and it was 35 for the exact thing except it was a pack of two. Good luck y'all!

Got a couple questions bout your headers. First, where did you buy them from if I may ask. Second, what particular model are they? Want to look into finding some for my truck that wont require a month to put on.

Its that pass side that has no room.

Get a set of these..never have to worry again..I use them on New Challenger 70 Charger R/T and soon 92 F-150

same here and no leaks!!! best part is i got em new on craigs list for 50 bucks. but one thing i had to do to em is cut off the flange that you ust to connect the pipe to the header because is was rubbing aginst the font drive shaft. so i welded the pipe directlly to the collector and i havent had any problems since
