Long tube headers at Wally World

[Wild one]

damn, if i knew about these i wouldn't have gone with the jba shortys, but then i'd have to get a real tune, meh nevermind

You can run long tubes with-out a tune,you just won't get all their benefits.

2k for headers. I think they have a bad addiction problem. I don’t think it’s normal for the cost to go from $150.00 to 2k in 20-25 yrs. especially headers . Maybe $500.00. But 2k. All that changed is the mounting flange really. For V8’s. It not like they’re made in the USA anymore. I thought all this stuff was supposed to get cheaper the more they made. Oh no we were lied too! Also I don’t ever remember the specific headers fitting without some denting required. The starter or steering was always in the way. Or frame rail. For $340.00 I’ll make em fit. Hold my beer. Lol

Just ordered these, will I need a retune? I already have a custom tune for my cam and running 93.

Ideally yes you'll want to retune.... Where did you find 8 speed headers? I cannot find em anywhere.

I've been told these obx from Walmart fit 8spds. Also someone on Facebook group installed them about 2 months ago. I'll update this weekend if all goes well

The picture of these looks identical to the ARH one's I just installed this weekend.... Had I known about these I might have given them a go for the cost savings.... The 2K for the American Racing ones really hurt... BUT... They were made VERY well, Packaged VERY well and fit without much fuss.... I'll be watching to see what shows up @dmullenex door step and if the quality / fit is there....

This is the exact scenario I’m considering.
I want ARH’s but I’ll be damned if I’m spending $2k on metal straws.

Ol' Roy Headers? Or Sam's Choice?

Hey, I do not mind some of the "Great Value" branded stuff.

Yeah I'd rather buy aftermarket exhaust manifolds then spend 2k on some pipes. So hopefully these obx fit if not I'll be ordering new manifolds

I’ve got a perfectly good set lying on the ground that’s going to the metal scraper you can have!

I gave these a long look too but wanted to get rid of the stupid OEM crimped pipe where the left & right cylinder banks go together.

Update, obx long tubes does fit on ds. Not worried about ps because ebay ones never fit on my ds always rubbed my steering shaft and couldn't get bolts in. But I do have ds installed and tightened!

 

[Black1500Ram]

you must have bought the last ones they show out of stock now!!

Glad I ordered them when i did haha! Beats paying 2k, all holes lined up both sides. Going to finish rest of exhaust tomorrow.

Truck definitely sounds better WITH A STOCK MUFFLER LOL, I had to remove my welded on electric exhaust cutout, will have to figure out how to weld a new one in and or get another muffler, but I do like a truck that's very quiet when I want it to be.
