cracked manifold great!

I have seen a set of Pacesetter shorties on Ebay for a 2004-2005 2wd/4wd truck but wonder what the difference is with my 2007 to them? Can I use those headers?

I'm not going back to manifolds as they will crack again and I will not pay stupidly for long tubes to gain 15hp and tuning issues. I'd love the long tubes but I'd go with some of the Ebay OBX knockoffs if I knew they were 16ga at least. None of them say so.

I can weld up the mid pipes easily. I just wonder if those would fit my truck and if they are problem headers for anyone?

Thanks guys
Happy 4th!
Dave

I went with the factory manifold because I didn't like the lack of good reviews and multiple unsubstantiated bad reviews on tuning issues with long tubes. I needed reliability. One broken stud but I got it out. The manifold had a crack 3/4 around the back cylinder. Man it runs so much quieter now. I need a muffler!
