Any one know much about these, or BBK in general? They are speaking of high gains for shorty's and an incredible price.

BBK is a proven company in any brand of performance. Specifically they have been known for their precision throttle body. I have seen them making quality headers for at least 10 years but as for the gains it would be a miracle if those shortys produced more than the long tubes. I have the JBA long tubes that I purchased from performancecenter.com and they "helped" get about 25 rwhp. This "helped" includes a tune, intake, pullies, no-cats h-pipe. Price looks tempting though. As for their products I am in line for one of their throttle bodies as we speak.

I have JBA shortys that gave me a few HP, but the results with these BBK for 270 is pretty tempting.

That description reads like complete marketing speak. Like someone took the best numbers from long tubes and applied them across the board or something.

Shorties are shorties, and I don't believe those claims one bit. Real numbers will be as you found on your JBA's a few but little more.

That's a great price though! Can't argue with that one bit

There have been several dyno's posted to back the fact the Shorties do basically nothing, which I why I sold my JBA's...BBK is a good company though and their products are nice.I believe they are partly owned by Edelbrock

BBK's website is not very user friendly. I wish they had it set up so you could just search by year, make, and model.

It seems like their products are just scattered all over on the site.
