i wouldnt put those headers on my truck if you gave them to me free. and that gasket looks about as worthless as a piece of cardboard would be. i like my pacesetters, and i use a Mr. Gasket header gasket

Which Pacesetter are you guys running? I noticed that there are the long tube and the short tube versions. Which will work better?

with the short tubes, ther are a direct bolt on to your existing exhaust, like your manifold would. so you dont have to go changing your whole exhaust if you dont want too

Those look dang good after 3 years man. I wonder how they would fair with the ice and snow that we get here along with the salt they layer the roads with. Did you notice any seat of pants gains out of them when you installed them?

I see that Summit has them for $234.. Def worth lookin into

Cowboy, do you have any video of the exhaust with those Borla's. I had those on one of my Mustangs and they sounded awesome.

yeah we have TONS of salt on the roads up here in PA in the winter so i would say they are is pretty good shape. you can feel a throttle responce yes and i would say at the most 20 HP gain, nothing drastic., no i dont have any videos but it def sounds mean

i have had a bad experience with pacesetter...

last year MOHAWK got some new headers cuz his cracked....he sent me his pacesetter shorties and i took them and had the crack welded up on it.....

i could tell that ive had an exhasut leak for awile but thot it was the stock manifold gasket, gt to lookin around the other day and the opposite one is cracked, up in where the pipes tubes meet and is probably nonrepairable
