Shorty's or LT headers???
 
Recently did cam swap to 232/234 112LSA. Really like the performance and sound. I already have cat backs on it. Looking to get headers. LT's are sooooo pricey. Will I get as good a performance increase with shorty's as with long tubes? If not anyone out there know where I can get a reasonable deal on some long tubes?? Seems that because the name corvette is involved the price goes up 2 fold!!!

Shortys are not much better than stock manifolds. Go LT and don't look back.

if you really want to compensate for that cam and let you car breath A WHOLE LOT BETTER you have to go with LTs...from what i've heard shorties are worthless and the cam won't benefit much from them.

Just like everyone else has stated go with the longtubes. shortys will be a waste of time and money. they are hardly better if any then the stock manifolds
