Before you do the shorties, save a lil more and go with long tubes. There is lil to none to be had with shorties. More peeps will chime in on this..

I'd say the most common longtubes available would be the Pacesetter's and the sponsors on the right have great prices. I personally bought from Byunspeed and was/have been extremely satisfied.

Anyways, just save the extra money and get the LT's, don't look back.

First of all, Shorty's are better than nothing.
I ran them on my 5.3 up to 500+ rwhp and gained only a little 10hp over them when I did swap to the LT's.

That being said, UNLESS you are concerned with emmisions legalities in your area just get the long tubes.
If you really don't want to deal with violating your local state laws and want to get the best posssible shorts I can vouch for the JBA's. They will cost you more than a set of Pacesetters.

Where do you want your power? Do you want the low end/ midrange gains, or do you want all out high RPM power?

Mids (thorles, Stans) will give the usable low/ mid gains while LTs give the high RPM gains.
