Hey ive got a stock 2001 SS, looking into geting new headers, Ypipe (keeping the SLP catback), so i was wondering what should i get? looking for best price, dynatech ones are really nice but costly...what do you guys use and like? ill get pretty close to free install on them, and somewhat less than retail on the parts(tax ID yay).

oh and 1st post yay

 

pacesetters LT all the way $399 coated
just ordered mine i got the whole kit for $600
kit includes coated headers, off road y-pipe,front o2 ext,rear o2 sims,stage 8 locking header bolts. have not installed yet but shouldn't be bad.

 

Pacesetters.

 

I've been happy with my Flow Tech LT's

 

I heard Kooks isn't a bad choice. I also have recently bought a set of headers not realising that there is more than just price that goes into reserching them. Take into account, fit, GROUND CLEARANCE (Not SLP, my mistake) and coatings. I bought mine too soon. There is a weath of information and a number of good people here to help us.

 

Stage 8 bolts are not necessary. Mine is driven daily and is running the stock bolts and none have gotten loose. Yes, I have checked.

 

I run the FLP LT and love them. Of course they don't come cheap. I believe they were around $1100.

 

Coated Hookers have treated me well so far. Just a little surface rust around the bottom of the collectors after 3 years...

 

I'm looking at BBK, jethots, and dynatech's....i would prefer not to spend a whole lot of money....i Definatley need the best ground clearance and flow..

 

anyone got any suggestions on these or other brands? ill find out my prices on them tomorrow

 

I would suggest some Pacesetters if you're not looking to spend a lot of money. I've been running Pacesetters and I'm very pleased with them. They are good headers with great ground clearance and great performance. I can get you Pacesetters, our ORY, O2 extensions, and O2 simulators for $659.97 + shipping. Let me know if there is anything we can do for you!

hit me up on AIM or email (racingrevolutions@earthlink.net), i can fax you my tax certificate and business lisence, maybe we can work soemtihng out..

 

I like my jet hot's but the best header on the market is the kooks bar none.

 

QTP and Kooks are the best you can buy hands down. Pacesetters if your on a budget.

 

After yesterday, I can not suggest a set of pacesetters any more. I helped a friend install some LT's in his 98Z and it was like butter. Driver side was done in about a hour, and the biggest PITA was getting the pass. side manifold off. But both headers slip right in with no problems. I was amazed. He paid $257 for the headers(uncoated) and I think $150 for the y-pipe. He got them from Mike@ New Era. And about the gains......WHOA It makes me really debate putting any more money into my LT1. He has the ORYP and a cutout thats always open, the car sounds meaner, deeper more throaty. Throttle response is improved, and the car pulls like crazy! In other words.....GO for the Pacesetter's period
