"inexpensive" means cheap and cheap headers won't last long. What is your budget for a decent set? ....and a 302 in an F-350 dually??

I had good luck with my first set of Flowtech headers, but my second set(different truck) had some quality control issues and I likely will not purchace them again.

Won't that be undermotoring the truck quite a bit?

the 302 runs great and cost me 10 bucks... the rear gear is a 4.88 and the tranny is a zf542 5 speed with a borg warner 1356. I am not doing any distance towing. Will upgrade to a windsor when i find one that is goood and cheap as well.
