Quick question, what about the holes and stuff for the O2 sensors and AIR stuff. I heard they're on the wrong side but how have the quality been with the new batch. Oh I forgot if they make the headers so you have to take out the AIR?

headers
I just bought some pacesetters my self and i got some mixed feed back.That you get what you pay for and there cheap etc.
I had to paint mine with heat treated paint the ones that i bought did not come heat treated andI had to buy the hooker y-pipe because they were all sold out of the pace y-pipe.What kind of problems did you guies have installing them if any, and do they really work.

As for you get what you pay for, I think you will be very pleased with the Pacesetter LT headers. We've consistently seen 20-25RW from the headers.
As for the the O2 sensor holes, that was pretty much just the first batch of headers Pacesetter sent out. From what I've seen, the y-pipe isn't too restrictive from the gains I've seen/read.
By the way, we should have our next order about the middle of January!
Thanks!

I ordered my pacesetters about 2 1/2 weeks ago and just got them installed about 3 or 4 days ago. The install was pretty straight forward, the only thing that I didn't like was that I had to grind a little bit because the drivers side header was hitting the k-member. Besides that these headers looked great and fit like a glove. The Y-pipe is crimped as some have already mentioned, but only about a foot or so long in a spot or two, if it wasn't crimped then it would be very difficult, if not impossible to get the thing to fit onto the collectors. I just intalled the Y-pipe and then went to my exhaust man and had him to bend the pipe just a bit more now it has about 2 inches of clearence before it actually hits the bottom of the car. Overall I would recommend these headers to anybody that is on a budget and wants great performance gains and sound from there LS1.
