ok,, let me see if I understand correctly,,

Headers are ok to use.. They will require more maintenance and upkeep.
They will improve horse power.
Headers will require a longer time to warm up..

Is my understanding correct??

Yes, and the longer warm-up leads to more engine wear especially in the pistons rings and cylinders. The way you wrote that you use the truck I don't feel that the few horsepower gained is worth the trouble.

starting to make a lot of sense..!!!

ok,, convinced, and decided..

Definitely, NO HEADERS....

Thank you guys,, you are great..

So,, now for the second decision,, two barrel intake, or Offenhauser manifold... Does it matter which one I use?? Or is one favored over another for daily driver..
