Hi and welcome to F-R!

I've heard a little differently, Torque Monsters I have never heard a complaint about and it was a rather big deal in January of 2018 when Robert started making them again after and EXTENDED painful hiatus. Painful for the Ranger swapping community LOL.

He has 2 models, one that fit GT40 heads only and are a little cheaper and the one famous design that will fit both 40 and 40P's.

The OBX headers are the ones with consistent problems, cracking welds and leaks but they do fit and work identical to the TM's otherwise.

GOOD LUCK finding the 3rd alternative, the FMS headers which performance wise are not as hot as the TM's but not by enough to be a deal breaker. I personally own a set and after I die I want them put in a museum they seem that hard to find. Most of that is humor but I seriously would not sell them.

Your best bet is to keep your ears open for someone that is going into a more severe race mode with their truck and don't need the TM's. Even on e-bay they are bringing most of their original cost.

How far are you with your build?
