Big Block Headers
Assuming you're asking which we recommend? I've got the Hedman long tube headers on my K3500. I welded v-bands on for collector flanges to make sealing and the possibility of leaks a non-issue...but thats probably waaaaay more information than you requested. By the way, welcome to the forum.- Beast496

Cheapy Super Beetle for the wife
Nice. My first car was a 71 Super Beetle. Of course, like everything I own, I had to "Hotrod" it out. After a year of buying parts and having an Uncle who knew VW's in and out, we had a monster 176hp 2276cc, dual weber carbed, fire breathing dragon pushing me down the road lol..- Beast496

Unusual radio issue
My Retrosound 4HD has done this a few times as well. It will be fine and then everything just freezes. No volume control, nothing, then stays on(audio and all) with key off until I reset the fuze or disconnect the positive cable on my main battery. Real fun when the sound is cranked up and you...- Beast496

Long tube headers vs short tube vs manifolds
I also run Hedman longtubes with V-band flanges welded on the ends. I'm somewhere in the 5-550hp range. I recommend Remflex brand gaskets for any header or manifold application. For your question, like Rick already said, stick with the long tubes if they're already in there and fit. Thats the...- Beast496

Yes, I'm new. As new as a 65 year old gearhead can be.
Welcome from Northern Nevada. Do you mean to tell me that long tube headers and 770 Holleys don't make the truck more reliable and help the engine to last longer?- Beast496

3” exhaust kit
Please don't take offense to this, but are you sure you need a 3" exhaust? The reason I ask is most folks that run a 3' exhaust(duals) do not really need it. In fact, it can hurt your performance in most cases and cause a hell of a drone that gets old quick. A well-tuned, properly bent 2.25-2.5"...- Beast496
