Re: long tube Headers Reply #3 – March 13, 2005, 05:20:40 PM but you need to put a mini starter if you ever plan to get the starter back out when you need to Quote Selected

Re: long tube Headers Reply #10 – March 14, 2005, 12:48:56 AM doh. guess i'll buy some MAC longtubes then. Flowtechs were on my list. tanks for the info. Quote Selected
Re: long tube Headers Reply #11 – March 14, 2005, 01:24:21 AM lol the only reason i bought them was because they where only $110.00 VS everyone elses 250+.. i'd say they are ok for what i payed for them and will have to buy another set unless i want to revamp my whole exhaust system again.. but they are just a pain in the BA!!S to install and they use slip s for most of the tubes but thats because the headers are equal length long tubes :shakeheadNick Quote Selected
Re: long tube Headers Reply #12 – March 14, 2005, 02:13:51 AM I had bought a set of Flowtech unequal length shorties and they were junk. You couldn't even get the header bolts through some of the holes due to the way the tubes were bent, they blocked the holes.I did really like the Heddman Headers I bought after I returned the Flowtechs.Any 351 owners with long tubes? Was curious about fitment with those. :dunno: Quote Selected
