    Well i just finshed putting no the headers i had on the shelf for the last 4 months. Has anyone else had problems with Edelbrock? The Y-pipe was wider the the header flanges. I cant tell of any increase in power but the roads are all covered in snow here in Michigan so I can't get in it to much.

    I had problems with the headers cracking at the welds on my Edelbrock headers. THey lasted just over a year before they started leaking.

    I should of went with full length. What is the best full length for the money. I dont want to spend tons of money on them. I like the dynatech but they are $1200.

    You can buy the dynatech headers only with collectors for less than $1000 without the crossover pipes and convertors. I can't remember who had them, Jegs or Summit but not long ago they were on sale for $750, I think. They went back to about $950.

    I have the Edelbrock shorties and have had no problem with them. I did notice a little power increase but no SOTP power increase. I have had them for about a year and a half no problems.
