Default Re: should i get heads or headers???

They both work hand in hand.. To get the full effect of either one you really need the other to help it. But honestly I would probably go with headers first. A set of Hooker headers is what I just put on my car and I love them. THe only part I didnt like was the fit of the y pipe.

Why not take advantage of your situation and do the head trick. The stock manifolds with ported heads won't get you any less hosrepower, and a big kick is only an hour's wrench away when the header cash is available.

I'm lazy, so I'd never opt to do a difficult job twice.

DO IT!
