Re: Question about these headers.

For the price of them i would say spend a tad bit more and get alot better of a header. Search the thread for Dyno Dons headers. Grade A stuff and supposably the best header for third gen. I had bought a pair but my motors not done yet, but what i read is not 1 complaint

Re: Question about these headers.

heard a couple issues with those ones, from the y-pipe touching to difficult plug access.

defiantly look up DynoDon here on the board, for a couple hundred more, you can get a set of the ones he makes. They are 1 3/4 primary and the best 3rd gen shorties out there bar none, and the best y-pipe too. Wish i had bought them instead of the slp ones i have

Re: Question about these headers.

wel li was asking cause some one i know has a pair for sale for $300. i was wondering if i would have to relocate a few things under my hood. i also got one more thing on my mind. The compresser and the altanater have a brace that bolts to the stock manifold. what happenes when i get headers and the braces dont have a place to bold up to?
