Tax returns are in! So new headers, TB, and TB spacer. I am going to buy all three at once and was wondering what companies make the best. Borla maybe, Flometircs for sure, and Poweraid probably. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The headers should come from Mike Leach @ (714) 639-5220. The TB should come from Bruce @ Flometrics. http://www.flometrics.com/TBhomepage.html

Before you buy the spacer, what engine do you have? It may not fit.

I have the 4.7L motor. Thank you for the numbers to call. Are these the numbers for the Borla headers? Have you heard anything good about the Poweraid TB spacer?

That's the number for the Mopar headers. I have the Borla cat back exhaust system not Borla headers. You should check around to see what kind of prices you can get for the cat back. I can send you to one place but they're pricey. I have never found the TB Spacers to be any good, however, there are some on this forum that say otherwise so have at it. I don't know how they'll fit on the 4.7. On my 5.9, the TB spacer will not fit with the Flometrics billet TB and the K&N FIPK, not that it did any good anyway.

ron- I see that you have the K&N FIPK on your truck. Is it the 14" that sits on top of the t-body? Thats the one I have and I was thinking of getting the filter that replaces the top mettle piece. do you have this and if so is it worth $50 thanks.

No, I don't have the one that sits on top. That thing is okay as a reusable air filterm but that's about it. I don't remember reading what engine you have but if it's V8, you should opt for the K&N FIPK Gen II 57-1509. That'll give you about 8-10 hp minimum. That has a new, bigger, better airhat and a heat shield. Cost is ~$250.

Kota on 20s, I have the 14" and am thinking about the extreme top but I don't think it would make much difference b/c the 14x3 already flows more air in cfm's than our TBs can really use, even with a mildly ported TB.
