I want to give an update to this question. I am changing my original answer. I forgot that I had my torque converter changed out after I put on the headers. I did not do the work but I called the people that did and they had to only remove the H-pipe but the headers were left in place. Hope this updated answer helps you.

Not familiar with them but they are probably going to be fine. Can you post a link to them?

I will assume you are asking about my headers which or OBX. If it is what type of converter I bought it is Precision Industries 3000 rmp stall.

I was asking the type of headers, that's good to know, I just put in a brand new trans and new clutch but you never know and since I can't work on cars much anymore because of time I have to pay to get the big work done, and a simple clutch replacement would suck to have to remove a header

Are those individual or pair? Seems to be half the price they go for everywhere else (for that brand and prothanes as well)

Did the mounts arrive in time to install over the weekend? Curious to hear impressions because there are 3 of those left in stock and I might pick up a set.

Yea I got the mounts they look good. Same as the bullets only all black. Ford sent me 2v gaskets instead of 3v though lol. My mechanic couldn't do it this weekend anyway. They should be in by next Saturday. But as far as the mounts go for all I know they're hot prothanes painted black lol. They appear identical. I was surprised at how heavy they are.

I got in on that offer while it was still good and picked up a set. I've been meaning to do something to address the sloppy shift from the engine torquing and it's either this or the CHE K-member brace. The brace costs more and has the downside of interfering with the path of long tube headers. I'll try to install this weekend when I do the dreaded spark plug job and an oil change.

I'll be doing my motor mounts tomorrow assuming the plugs don't go too badly. I've got the removal tool and hoping I don't have to use it.
