how much would new headers cost, i have a 94 f150 stock 5.0 302c., can any of you give me an estimate, thanks

 

Shorties around $250, longs around $180, depends on quality. Best are Hooker and Headman. They might cost a little more but they are thicker.

 

oh okay thanks, i think i need new ones because i think i burned something in the motor, im not an expert so i dont know much about it

 

Are you talking about headers or exhaust manifolds? Manifolds are about $30.00-$60.00 each.

 

i think both, im not too sure, a mechanic is going to come and check it out so he's going to take a look at it and tell me what i need, thanks tho

i looked up some review on headman and hooker and i got the impression that they were garbage. it sounded like JBA or Gibson headers were the way to go unless you like exhaust leaks. it also depends on your transmission. do you have a auto or manual? i have a 1994 F150 with a 302 and 5 speed and long tube headers are not compatible. oh and to further narrow it down i read that JBA's were the best deal because Gibson's were nice but not worth the extra $100-$150.

 

Hooker about the best, headman, jbs, gibson good, dynomax, flowtech cheapie headers, one good thing about Hooker, they actually fit. Headman has a headers that fits a manual trans.
