Hey fellas,
As you know, I'm still working my way up to all of your guys automotive knowledge, especially when it comes to dents as I'm partial to that generation of Ford trucks.
I don't understand why the PO would spend so much on every other inch of the rig, ESPECIALLY the engine, and not do better with the headers. Well, after only 13k miles since the restore was finished, the headers on there now are starting to pit and show rust on the pitted parts and I'm ready to replace them with some nice ones that would match with all of the chrome under the hood.
I have a trusted friend who has a garage that will let me work beside him when we do anything to my rig, so that settles that. I just need some help and guidance from you on what would be best for my rig for what I'm looking for.
I'd like it to be shiny like the other chrome and silver in the truck, but I also know that chromed and steel pipes turn color with the heat...I've seen and had conversations about it with other show car owners at car shows.
I went to Jegs and Summit and it looks like there in line with eachother price wise for the same products.
What about these:

Anything else I should know about installation?
Thanks!
