Default headers,headers,headers

alright guys these arent actually for a lsx:/

they are for my dodge ram hemi.
but im very curious on with would one would out perform the other.
i know a little on headers.
i always thought the longest primaries the better.i also know the different length primaries shift torque around.
so any link you can produce or even just your opinions greatly appreciated. im only 19 atm and learning as i go.

the trucks basicly a street truck.doesnt tow or hual sh.it.
doesnt ever see the track just alot of stop lights
other mods if they need to be know if full bolt ons. (cai,udp,e-fan,180t-stat,tuner...and more those are the majors though)
it will be cammed in about 6 months as well if that matters

both sets are made for the truck. just need to know which would be better...and possibly why if you dont mind sharing. (i need to learn)

(these seem to have longer primaries...actual length looks longer.)
they are pacesetter quick trip headers



these are also pacesetter long tubes headers. but they carry a different design. these have the shorter primaries of the 2.



these are exact designs and pictores of the headers for a dodge ram 5.7L hemi.
both are long tubes (niether is equal length...i think,doesnt specify on there site.) but would the quicktrips net me higher hp up top because the longer primaries?
plz any advice...like i said im 19 and learning!

Do both have 1.75" primaries? Everything else being equal, what you would be expecting with the longer primaries, is a header tuned for it's best exhaust scavenging effect to happen at higher RPM, yes. Whether the quick trip headers will net higher whp than the other ones, or just carry the powerband out a little further, you would want to find some dyno graphs, and just look at the curve of it.
Consider that they may also use different materials, coatings, collectors; I would call or email Pacesetter and ask.

pacesetter only offers one long tube for your truck. Niether of the ones you pictured are for your truck.
