Default Headers Only on a v6??

there is a guy i know that needs some cash quick so he offered me his bbk shorty headers for a v6 mustang for 150,me and him both have a 2001 v6 so they will fit.my question is do you think they are worth it,i mean what will they do for my car,i dont have cash right now to get dual exhaust so what will the car be like with just the headers on?

well by the design of the stock manifolds on the v6, they are VERY similar to headers, and they flow very well in their stock form. That goes for shortie headers, but long tube headers are where power can be made if u have power adders. If theyre chrome and ur worried about engine dressing and to say u have em, jew him to 100-125 and call it a day.
