What headers??

Re: What headers??
I don't have headers yet, but when I finally do order them its definatley going to be Pacesetter LT's. I have read all good things about quality, installation, and of course the low price. Just do a search on Pacesetter and you will see nothing but good things.

I do not have first hand experience with the Pacesetters. However, from everyone's conscensice these are the easiest headers to install and give excellent gains. However, I have the Long Tube Hooker Headers, Coated, with 02 bungs and EGR. These are a work of art. I wouldnt replace them. However, these are $600+ headers.

I wanted to keep everything on my SS 'SLP', so I chose their L/T Headers, Y-Pipe, w/ Random tech High-flow cats. They hang somewhat low, so if lowering your car is in the future, you may not want them.
I'm very satisfied with the quality and sound

Re: What headers??
i really would discourage the purchase of Jet Hots longtubes...they modified the design i believe, and you practically have to remove the engine from the car (atleast unbolt the block, raise it up quite a bit and still have a rough time fitting the driver side header in. and no, this wasnt just a one time occurance, when me and my friends were done, we did a search, and found another guy who did a writeup and had the same problems. i would definately go with the pacesetters and get them coated by a local reputable shop who does that. pacesetters coating isnt all that great.

If money is at all a concern, go with the Pacesetters. They are probably the best you will find for under $700. I paid $250 for mine. I didn't even have to jack up the motor. Both sides just slid in from the top, no clearence issues at all.

Re: What headers??
No one has mentioned spark plug access on any of the above headers, which have the best access to the plugs as I know some are almost impossible to get at a couple of the plugs?
