I would really discourage getting headers this early in the game. Your money would be better spent on a set of 4.10 gears and a traction lock. You will feel much more power with these than you ever would with headers. Just get yourself an off road (catless) H pipe (Not sure how to convert from a Y pipe to an H pipe on sixers) and a nice catback system and you will have a nice sound. But, in all honesty, spend your money on some gears. You will be disappointed by the butt dyno with headers (especially after payer $400 + on them in addition to a $300-$500 install). You will feel a huge difference with gears.

Headers on a V-8 are a waste of time, on a 6, they are a total waste of time. They cost money, are a bitch to install, and they don't perform. What else can I say?- LOL
