haha well i installed Shorties and omg they ******* blow! 1st off cylinder 7's spark plug wire gets burned up every 30 minutes cause of the poor design. I have gone through 7 wires, then me and my dad were like **** this. We are ripping these off and putting on LT Pacesetters.
So now im in the process of removing the Hookers and putting the new Pacesetters on! ![Bigun2](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/bigun2.gif)

Shorties for the loss!
Lol your friends have very cute cars. I bet that TC is ballin' fast. I mean it has rims it has to be. Lol I remember one of my old acquaintances from high school thinking his bolt-on TC could keep up with my Trans Am. Hilarious times!

You just bought the mid lengths probably. I run the hooker super comps, 3600 degree jet hot coated inside and out with the factory routing and didnt burn one plug wire. Granted the jet hot coateing helps out a lot with outside temperatures. These were the bought from auto zone longer than needed OE replacement. The stock plugs are long gone now but it can be done with the hooker headers. It just takes time to make sure that you will not have an issue. Also running the heat sleeves does wonders when it comes to close wire. BTW i love my hookers. They brought my car to life and sound great.

2. just a guess but 10-20, depending on your build
3. It will sound like it's fueled by dying babies through a stock catback
4. never BUY shorties hahaha
