Headers

My passenger side manifold is leaking and instead of replacing the gasket I want to put headers on. Does anyone have any suggestions on headers that will bolt on to the stock exhaust? I don't want anything too expensive. It is an 04 5.4L

I highly suggest you just replace it with the OEM manifolds.

Headers are just gonna cost you some serious money and you won't get any serious HP gains...maybe 5 HP.

You need a setup like I've got to see any decent gains that will justify the money you'd spend






edit: sorry, didn't answer your question. Dynatech makes 'em for our trucks
