Headers? Need Advise!!!
Headers? Need Advise!!! Guys,
I have the opportunity to pick up some MAC Mids (cer coated) for $400 (never installed/brand new) and I am wondering if it's worth it. I currently have some JBA shorties on my 383 stroker and wanted to know should I stick with my current install or go with the MACs? For those of you that prefer long tubes, just FYI they won't work for me as my T/A is slammed with Eibach Pro's and I will have major clearance issues. Will I have clearance issues with the MACs as well or is it just not really worth it? Any advise ASAP is greatly needed as if I'm gonna get these I need to move on em. Thanks for all your help.

If these are the same MAC 1-5/8" headers that have been around since the mid '90 (which I had on my car at one time) then I can't see them giving much of a gain over the 1-5/8" JBAs you already have. There are plenty of guys running around with long tubes with lowered cars.
The $400 includes the headers and ypipe, which will work with my setup. Not too concerned with HP, but will the MACs work better with a 383 setup or will the JBA shorties perform just a well and it's not worth the change?
