Pics of my new Kooks headers

I just thought I would share these with you guys. I know when I was looking to buy them I was looking all over for pictures. I love them and can not wait until they are on the car. Here they are


















Also I am at 300RWHP right now with a CC503 cam and stock manifolds/cats. Do you think 330RWHP would be expecting to much? My last dyno run I was running lean up top but I don't know how much of that to blame on the cats (using tail pipe sniffer). So I may need to get a fuel pump or a retune.

Beautiful headers. I wish I had a set of those under the hood of my car. Once you get the long tubes installed and the rest of the exhaust put together and correct the other gremlins, you should put down 330 at the wheels easy and the potential to do more.

Yep they sure are pretty. I agree with 2000GTP 330 rwhp is definately possible with everything working in harmony.

They sure look good. But have fun putting in your drivers side heated O2 sensor. The bung is pointed up instead of out or in.

That bung ponting up is weird, and the pass. side points to the outside of the car. On my pacesetters, both bungs point to the inside of the car.

On the hookers both point to the outside. Easier access I think.

Did you have those coated??
Where at ??

Are those 1-3/4 3" collector??

I did 275rwhp/317rwtq Stock w/CAI and 160 stat
Open cut out, same day 285rwhp/319rwtq

Then with
Pace Headers,ls1 lid, 2.5 true duals,1.7rr, Electric w/p,Under drive pulley
327rwhp/350rwtq


I cant say that headers did all of that , the other mods helped out too. But since you already have a cam, i would bet they would help out a lot.

Thanks guys for the complients. Yes they are 1-3/4" and were coated by Jet Hot. I think I may go get started on the install now. I just went and picked up a new set of 02 sensors and a shorter oil filter. I will have more pics when I get them installed. Thanks

run your old o2s for a while until the coating inside the headers burns off a little.
