How big of a difference is there between shorty headers and long tubes? I know that the long tubes offer better performance gains but are shorties really that bad? I need to start looking into a better exhaust but I dont want to spend a fortune on long tubes and go through the pain of installing long tubes. Any suggestions or opinions are welcome!

Get shorties for the very reasons that you listed.
I have shorties. If I switched over to long tubes I think the gains would be minimal.

................. in the case of 5.0s
but i don't think shorties do crap for 4.6s, i think extended tubes are the way to go with them.Comment

I wouldn't waste my time with shorties. Especially on a 4.6. Mili, just get long tubes.
