So my exhaust manifolds on my 2001 v6 are cracked, pretty badly. I decided to go ahead and replace them with shorty/unequal headers.

I'm on a tight budget, so from looking around, I saw that the MAC short/unequal headers are the cheapest I can get.

I may be wrong, and if so direct me to something else please.

Otherwise, whats the best/reliable place to buy the headers?

Once I get them, I was planning on saving on shop costs by attempting to install them myself with two friends of mine. I saw that there is a pretty detailed guide on installing long tubes, but I need a guide on just replacing stock manifolds with direct replacement shortys.

Is it doable? Is there a guide anywhere?

Thanks for all the help!

If you got the shorty headers, generally it is a simple matter of unbolt your factory manifolds and install the shorties...

Factory exhaust manifolds are basically shorty headers....

And I believe the MAC ones are the least expensive out there, but then someone else might have a link to a site that possibly can beat them.

got like $80 more you can get more power and a better sound.

shorties are like BSif i were you i'd re-think your header choice. shorties are only good IMO if you wana custom build your own turbo and invert those and make pipes off them, to the turbine etc..

theres a very thin line between wasting your money and buying short tube headers

mmk everything you need is on this site... go talk to crazylegs under the vendor section... he can hook you up with anything you need...

after that go to the do it your self section on the home page their is a write up on doing a header swap on their...
