I've been looking at Dougs headers for a while and was actually going to post here today and ask if anyone had any experience with them. They look great on your car. The price seems pretty good, how's the quality? What kind of y-pipe did you use, or did you go with duals all the way back? Is your car lowered at all? Sorry for all the questions, I figured you would know.

Re: finalyy instal of doug's LT 1 3/4 headers
indeed, be prepared for questions lol
they look great and clearance looks adequate, especially for my lowered car. I think they would work great for me as i'm in the market for some headers
Any clearancing problems during install? does quality look good? Pipe thickness good?

Clearance is fine. Be prepared to jack your car extremely high. Only way to get in the driver side header. Great tone. I got a custom y pipe and it is great. The y pipe isa long one. Great power increase. I would suggest tem to anyone

Any pics of the rest of the exhaust? I'd like to see the y-pipe and your muffler set up.

Re: finalyy instal of doug's LT 1 3/4 headers
hahaha I have asked way more questions. I changed my starter to a lt1 starter instead. It is much smaller and it made install ten times easier on myself. 540 for headers shipped. Then 125 for mini starter, and 100 bux for weld job and y pipe.

Those are nice, did you get them from a distributor or factory direct? When are the pictures of the y-pipe coming?

Project x is my "experimental" third gen that is currently in the barn. I always have at least one "x" car that receives many different engine/trans experiments as time goes by. My last one had to stay behind when I left CA so I had to get another!

Re: finalyy instal of doug's LT 1 3/4 headers
I would never suggest anyone drop their cars, i have an rs that is dropped and the ride is so rough, and it scrapes on damn near everything making it a PITA to drive. It looks really cool though, but IMO not worth the agrivation.

Re: finalyy instal of doug's LT 1 3/4 headers
all depends on how you drop it and what springs/shocks you choose. My car is dropped and rides just fine
Re: finalyy instal of doug's LT 1 3/4 headers
Exactly. My car is lowered and handles 10x better. Mind you I have alot more suspension mods but I would bet even with dropping the car an inch with some upgraded shocks/struts, it would handle like it was on rails.
