Long or short?

i have a 92 rs with a built 350tbi. i was wondering what are the pros and cons (more hp,trq,bolt right up to exsisting exhaust) of long tubs verse shorties. also, if you could recommend some headers that would be great. i have 10:1 compression,270h comp cam and bored 30over. thanks a bunch. you can email me if you want at pol340@chartermi.net

the hooker shorties and long tubes seem to be the best out there or most comonly used. the long tubes are better because they are better for producing better torque numbers. shorties are nice because they are, most of the time, easier to install.

Run the Hooker 2210's. Largest increase in top end torque and bottom end driveability. Use a LT1 starter to make it real easy.
