Hi,

JMHO, but B&B's are too large for a stock 3.0 and that results in less low & mid-range torque (which is what that engine is best at producing).

I've had best luck using 1.5" George's Headers and connecting them to a dual-in/dual-out Magnaflow or Flowmaster muffler. Such 3.0 engines can make power up to 259 BHP so that smaller size is no liability at all.

You will need to replace two oil lines, but thats not a problem.
