Class C Headers on ebay

Found these. Don't seem like a bad price.

$1000 and no picture of what they look like?i never would have thought there would be a demand for headers on a motorhome.i guess you can hot rod anything.

Banks is a well-known company that has made exhaust and intake and other upgrades (like tranny shift kits) for a long LONG time.

Whether or not they are worth $1000, that's another story entirely, especially if you don't do the work yourself.

I've been wrong before, I'll be wrong again. Just wait and see.

With a 305hp 420tq engine and a GVWR of 14,500lbs you can use all the extra power you can get. A grand for a set of Banks headers is not bad, you pay more than that for a set of Banks headers for the F-Series. Banks seems to be pretty popular on the motorhomes.

And the gasser 460's definitely needed all the help they could get especially in those motorhomes...

It carried over to the V10's for a little while, and I guess it kinda went away... I don't hear a whole lot about them, but I haven't been on rv.net in a long time ...

if i'm not mistaken i think that's the same part # of my headers. i found mine on ebay as well. mine i lucked out on and payed just over $500 shipped to my door! my kit included the torque tube header, y-pipe, and all hardware. you can call banks to cross reference your truck to the part # to make sure it will fit, but i'm pretty sure it will!!

as for power difference.........HELLO V-10 WAKE UP!! the single best mod i've done has been the headers!! as long as it's a 2v V10, i think you'd be very happy with the power increase, as far as bocket book happiness...........well that might be another story.

They very well could be the same - they don't show a different picture for the F53 chassis versus the rest of the F-series.
