Headers all by themselves will almost always add horsepower over stock manifolds. I can also realize more power out of my cam and head work by using them. The result of a coordinated cam, ported heads and LT headers should give me more horsepower overall so how this get twisted into some kind of vanity BS?

I was NOT trying to "...leverage as much power as I can" out of my engine beyond what the mild cam, better valve springs and Zo6 manifolds would give me. I simply have no need or desire for more. The truck has WAAY more power than I will ever need.
The "...some kind of vanity BS" would have been if
I had opted for headers with my goals in mind.
