Are the Monster Headers still inproduction ?If so, what is the retail price ?
Stop production for a while... a great way to decrease availability and  increase the price, what the market will bear.
Why won't a set of shorty headers work ?


Due to the "unique" clearance issues with the 98 to 2000 5.0 swaps using GT40P heads (the spark plugs actually come out straighter than the GT40 heads) the torque monster headers were the only ones that addressed all the clearance problems without modifying anything. The tubes are longer than my FMS headers but I have never seen an actual dyno comparison between the TM's and the FMS.

OBX had a short run of a torque monster clone but those became unavailable really quick.. I wonder if they got sued and that put a spark under Robert's butt to start the welding again. In search of the story.
