unless LS1s are different that way !!
Oh ffft. Friggin' typos...

Kal, that sounds like a good price. Is that the coated y-pipe or non-coated?

The y-pipe I got from them sucked, but apparently they have fixed the issues. Mine was too long and banged. The new ones are supposedly ok.

Also, Bobby just twigged my memory that you may have to grind a small bit on the block to get the header in place. No big deal, believe me. Its a 'tab' on the engine block that's not supposed to be there anyways... left over by a lazy GM builder.

chris is there any way you could help me do the install? I've never done a header swap before so compleatly clueless, would be apperciated if you could guide me through it? just dont want to mess anything up like the threading etc....

I do belive that price above is for the coated y pipe, ill double check it though

I'm don't mind hosting a mod-day at my place for a weekend or two in April / May.

I have to strip the engine bay some time very soon, and then hopefully in April drop the motor in. It would be fine with me to have a few folks around for a mod fest.

Don't forget that Sandeep has some weekends coming up as well.
