Question Hedman hedders

I am going to buy some hedman hedders but am not sure if I should get the long tube or the shorties. My friend told me the shorties will give me better midrange power, but the long tubes will have more low end.

I am either getting

What do you think?

Not sure on the OBS trucks. On the new, everyone likes longtubes since the stock manifolds flow pretty good.

If it were me, I would go with LT's.

Are you serious? Dud please don't waste your money on the shorty headers. A long tube header will add power in your whole entire power band range. You'll gain on the bottom, in the mid range and ef. on top.

Headman makes a set of torq step headers that produce a bit more low end torque, but just make sure you get long tubes.

Thumbs up

Yeah, I was kind of set on getting the long tubes, but I have'nt really researched the shorty headers. I also found a set of hooker headers that have a 1.75" opening, but supposedly they are overkill and with that big of an opening I would mainly get high end power. Lets just say I don't plan on takin my tank too fast. These hooker headers are also tuned, any opinions?
