Those SW headers look like they're coated in their pics.

Maybe they are, according to that site, coating is an option for an extra 325.00 dollars.

It says they're the coated version in the caption, so they don't have pics of the regular stainless steel LT's I believe.

Are you saying that their catback is 2 1/2"? That's smaller than the stock exhaust, isn't it?

I guess those pics could be of their coated headers. 1700+ for coated with Y-Pipe is quite a bit more expensive than Kooks. I wonder if they have a dealer network that offers them at cheaper prices.

Their prices unfortunately are the reason why no one runs them. I've seen a set of the coated stainless steel LT's in person, they're a dandy. However I'd never pay close to $1700.00 for a set w/ y-pipe

I never said the catback was that size, I just said I posted a couple times a year or so back in regards to this catback and if anyone was running it on their car. I was curious as to the overall fitment, sound, and quality in relation to its pricetag.

I guess I didn't understand what you meant when you said "Neither is their catback".

I was stating that just like their headers, the catback is not cheap either. Sorry for the confusion.

Thats what I wonder too. I've made a couple posts in the past and tried doing some google searches and really haven't come up with anything. Somebody has to be using those parts as some of the bigger vendors do sell them.

You may want to wait and see what the results are with the LPP headers. I have their stainless headers on my 00SS that I bought used. They still look great and seem to work well with all emission's fittings. They also have really thick flanges so warping shouldn't be a problem. I got my used stainless headers for $160 shipped so I can't complain.

The guy finally came out with a price on the LT1 LPP headers. They're pretty darned cheap, imo.

Yeah...500 bucks for a set of Stainless Steel LT's and $150 for a y, w/ free shipping. I thought I'd never see the day. I've had mine for awhile, just been too busy at work and home to get them on. Cool thing is I'll be able to reuse my new dual exhaust on them...can't wait.

BTW this guy has the potential to corner the LT1 LT header market w/ the prices he offer's. Make's it seem like all the other manufacturer's have been robbing us for years quality & cost wise. You'd spend 1,300 going with kooks to get the regular 1 3/4 w/ y pipe. You'd save $650.00 going with the LPP LT's 1 3/4 to 1 7/8's ...how insane is that? Maybe these header manufacturer's will wake the f'up....I doubt it though.


Very Nice...!

Wow, those are cheap. A set of coated Pacesetters runs close to that cost and I think we have all seen the quality related threads on those.

Perhaps I'm behind the times, but who is LPP, those things look nearly identical to Kook's. Very nice!
