JET HOT Long TUbeds. INstall!!!!

ALL I have to say is DAMNNNN. These headers looks so sweet in person. WOW. They look nothing like on TV or an Web page. Well I was doing alot of research on intalls on these headers. And Im proud to say that I installed these Headers by myself with the help of a motor jack and some wooden blocks. The hardest part was getting the motor mounts OUT again after putting the motor in last week. I manage to get the pins in and out. And tommorow Ill be bolting the headers to the heads and Hopefully with good Prayer this motor will be GOOD TO Go. Just though I would share some things with your guys. has anyone seen HP Gains from these headers?? The Friggin Primary looks so big. IT has to make HP some were. I hope its on the TOP end. LT1's suffer on the top end. BUt have junk Loud of LOW end Torque. IF you have these headers and are running right now please give me your imput. I cant wait to get my car started. Thanks
Chris

They gave me a 107 MPH trap (LS1 territorry), trust me you will like them. Just make SURE the bolts are secured to the heads, by either stage 8 bolts or some other locking bolts, going back to fix a blown heade gasket SUX.
Good luck.

I've heard some people have had issues with the coating, but mine after a year+ havent shown a single fleck of surface rust other then in the spot where i scraped the coating off when i bottomed out once.

Ditto, I've had mine in since last July with no problems. But I also keep my car garaged and never see's rain or snow.
