2000 ford excursion 5.4l gibson headers

Good morning everyone,
Just wanted to chime in and say I got my gibson headers last night I would have to say by feel and looks they are some very well built headers. I cannot wait to put them on. I would like to post pictures of them and the install but I know I can't yet but I will take pictures for when I can though.

You'll catch a lot of grief from these guys (me too sometimes) about the 5.4, but just remember we're all a bunch of brothers and sisters around here. We'll good naturedly tease and poke fun of each other, but we'll always have your back!


When you get the chance, post the pictures. Adding HP and torque to the 5.4 will always help keep a smile on your face!

Your just mad because you have to over compensate for something else with a bigger motor lol just kidding I've got big shoulders I can handle the abuse. I'm totally down for Starting a red headed step child thread lol. Also am I allowed to post pictures in a thread I'm kind of new to the site even though I've had an account for a year.

Absolutely yes. Most of us demand it, otherwise it didn't happen Also, let me know how those headers work out for power changes. I'm building one of those cute 5.4's for my daughter's Power Wheels

You can also get away with random off topic stuff for pics, or just replies in general. The Excursion forum is a little more loosely moderated than the others on the site and most of us are completely ok with it being that way. Granted the leeway seems to fluctuate depending on where in his monthly shark week cycle Stewart is. He's either contributing to the chaos or descending on us like the wicked witch of the west with that flock of damned flying crap throwing monkeys.

That's some funny stuff I liked the power wheels thing that was great. And ok I will post cool stuff as I find it. But before I can figure out the power difference I have to get my steering box changed messed it all up with a night of drunken fun in my backyard . Won't do that again after its fixed. You guys are some good people on here have been very helpful to me.

This is how I bought it hated the running boards so I took them off

I'm going to also be taking the wheels and tires off and sanding the rims down and painting them black and hopefully put new tires on it also will post more pics after I get the dents I put in it fixed and repainted.

Do the headers come with a Y pipe? If not are you going to add one too or do any other exhaust work? I like the black painted bottom and wheel arches.
