Re: shorty vs full length headers

Daly is right about the power ranges, where I accidentally mixed up the LTs and shorties on the HP range. Shorties for mid-high end HP and LTs for low-mid end HP. However, power is not torque. Trucks need torque in the low end (idle +). ...

Re: Power Locks

... in Fort Worth, so I need to be able to pass emissions. It may be cheaper to buy Pacesetters and aftermarket cats... Doing this may hurt low end power. Headers will only give you HP gains at higher RPMs. Opening the exhaust could cause loss of backflow at lower RPMs and reduce power. The only ...

yes AFM aka DOD is where the engine switches from V4 to V8. there are companies that make long tube headers with the cats already part of the systems.

Re: 5.3 Mods, What Do You Guys Recommend For Low End Power?

... a tuner very soon and will definitely go with Lew from the good things I've heard about him. Are there anymore odd tips or tricks to get more power from our engines? Or things that just make it more efficient? I'm thinking I want to put long tube headers as well, but I'm guessing that will ...
