I sent a few picture links to show the parts I am looking to put on my truck. I am open to other opinions as well. But for the money and what I have read I feel VERY comfortable with these parts. But please, please if you visit this page leave an opinion.

I like the mods but I would do JBA headers before Gibson. They are less expensive and JBA used to build all of Gibsons headers.

 

I have JBA shorties. They installed easily without much effort. They slid right in without lifting or unbolting the engine. I did have to jack the truck up to allow the a-arm to drop down, but never unbolted anything.

You'll get the....Shorties dont do anything ordeal all over the web. My shorties changed the exhaust tone and I noticed an immediate result when towing with them.

I'd make sure that dual exhaust will fit with suspension mods if your lowering or something?

 

Yeah I was looking into that today. If you lower it might possibly change where the pipe goes in the rear based off the flip kit for lowering. I really like the GIBSON MODEL #311SC model. What do you think vs JBA. JBA charges so much though conmpared to the GIBSON.

I am re thinking on the shorties headers with bends and looking at thmis model gibson below. Your thoughts ???

The log is no better than your factory manifolds. Wait to buy the JBA's if you want headers as you will regret it later.

 

Any thoughts on some of the headers that poeple dont mention alot of. Dougs Headers, Hedman Hedders, Edelbrock ?

 

I know I have multiple threads going, but I read and respond to EVERY ONE of them (I am trying to get educated). I need to know headers that you currently haved INSTALLED beyond the factory and what you think. I am so torn right now. I like Gibsons model #GP311SC for a shorty version. They are stainless, ceramic and a GREAT price ($425). Hedman and JBA are near $700 for stainless, and ceramic!!! Which I find nutz. So can the forum please steer me in the right direction of what to go with and perhaps where to buy them. And one question I ask is it worth it to have the ceramic coating ?

Thanks...Cant wait to read the answers !!!

 

What engine do you have? I've had my Gibson Stainless ceramic coated shorties on my 4.7L for around 6 months and have no problems. They still look like they did when i first put them on. I paid 400 and think i got a good deal. Just be sure to get more mopar gaskets and dont use the ones they send. They wont last.

 

Gibson makes shorties for the 4.7l, but not for the 5.7 (which is what I have). They only make a LOG header. Model GP311SC

 

I have pacesetter long tubes on mine. Ceramic coated. I love them, cheaper but still produce close to the same as some that run in $1000 range.

Get them ceramic coated to help keep things cooler under the hood and prevent rust
