with all the mods on my truck right now im pushing about 340 at the crank, thats almost 100 more then stock.. (250)

adding one mod wont make a big diffrence, adding muti mods over time will give you power, a engine is one big vaccum, the more air you can get into it and out of it will give you power, and creating the best mix of fuel and air.. do that and you will have massive power...

bore the heads, and some headers, get an intake manifold, Throttle body, intake, cam, exhuast, pcm, gears all at one time and you will notice a big diffrence LOL! i wish i was rich enough to just build myself a new 408 or do some custom work and put a hemi in my dak.. but not happening.. lol

Where would you find the Mopar PPH headers? I cant find them anywhere online, they said they had them on a search I did on socaldakota.com but I searched for them on there and still no luck. Any ideas?

is there an actual website you can order them from? Or do you have to contact mopar over the phone to order those PPH headers?

I'll probly just end up giving them a call myself and seeing whats up. Is there currently any headers out there that compare to the Mopar PPH headers though? Like the gibsons or JBA's?

The PPHs where specificly made for the 5.9s.. when i replace my headers.. im going with the PPHs.. and having them powder coated black.. they only come in a chrome finish type crap that turns green over awhile.. kinda gay.. but hell they are good headers..

i have the Gibson shorties on mine right now and they work fine.. cept i have one bolt gone and now i got an exhuast leak and im throwing o2 codes like crazy... i just dont have 600$ to drop for a new set of headers right now.. and dont have the time to fix it either.. working fulltime and it feels like im getting no where.. god i love life.
