Actually, NOBODY HAS to read anything on here that other people post. We read posts so we can learn or help out others. As was brought out before, you are only making enemies and people that will put you on their ignore list. You get what you give man... If you want us to "shut all that b.s. up", we will, and you can get all your advice from your mechanic friend and have a sub-par truck to everyone on this forum because of it... (sub-par means bad) peace

To answer your question...
Since I (as well as some others have) installed long tube headers over the factory manifolds can tell you they have a significant increase in power. The dyno i did directly after installing gained 27hp and 32lb tq. That was with high flow cats too.
As far as your mechanic is, he doesnt know crap. If he is referring to shorty headers he may be right. They dont help any over factory except for sound. If he actually meant long tubes then i would not trust that mechanic more than my 7 year old. (and he loves it when i floor it!)
Dude seriously though, it doesnt take anyone to use spell check to see you have no regard for punctuation in any manner. Not that it directly makes an impact on you but is extremely difficult to understand. For that matter, i had to read your post a few times just to understand what you had put. Totally made no sense at all. Wouldn't suprise me if you were in your teens.
I will be more than glad to help you in your decision to add or not add headers but i am not sure your digesting the info your receiving. None of the people here are ford sponsored or such but just enthusiast that love our trucks and enjoy knowledge from our fellow friends.
Do not get an attitude when some try to help. You will be wasting your time and get nothing from your quest of info here. If you have more questions please ask me and i will gladly help but keep it real man.
