Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
I am definitely interested in 1 3/4 x 3". I was heading towards mid length just because I am on a budget, but would rather have Hawks full length. It would depend on the price for me as well.

I've sent PM's and voicemails with Hawks and have not got a response. That must mean their not interested?

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
Can other suppliers order those headers through ssw? If that's the case I'd say we find a someone else that will play ball.
Strano carries SSW, I may give him an email and see if he can get a hold of them or not.

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
Well it certainly looks that way, its a shame since it looks like about any other vendor out there will sell SW stuff 5-10+% under MSRP. I need to call hawks anyway to see where their mounts the motor.
Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
I imagine Hawks probably developed them and just gets SSW to mass produce them. Essentially Hawks design, manufactured by SSW.

I don't want to sound ungrateful, I'm really excited for these, I just hope a group buy will help them fit my budget as well as they hopefully fit my car.

Yeah, and if that's the case they've earned the right to charge whatever they want for what sounds to be the best fitting/quality header out there for our cars.

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
I just got off the phone with Bruce and he’s working with us on a deal.
To get in you need to call Bruce directly 864-850-8865, ask for Bruce or leave a message if he is not available. Please don't be a punk and back out if you said you were in
We only need 5 buyers here, and these are great headers, TIG welded stainless steel, great fit, and hand made in the USA. And you probably won't have another chance at them at this price.
$799 for 1.75” primary headers, either 2.5” or 3” collectors, *free shipping
$1000 for 2” primary headers, *free shipping
*Shipping is normally $40-50 (cont US only)
Need 5 buyers minimum to get the deal.
This deal is open for 1 week only.
He said prices will be going up shortly to over $900, so if you really need a set you might not want to put this off. $1000 for 2” primary headers, *free shipping

Need 5 buyers minimum to get the deal.

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
I have been working on a separate deal with Bruce with all my parts I need for my swap. I need to find out that price first. Hopefully know tomorrow or next day.
I am definitely buying them one way or another, so let me find out my package price first before I commit to this one, or maybe mine will count. I will let you know as soon as I know.

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
Give me a couple of days. I had something come up. I'm probably still in. I just have to make sure this other thing is covered first. When's the cut off day?

Re: any interest in LSX swap headers from Hawks?
I dont understand how a place like this can be closed at 5pm.
I left a message just now, hopefully I get a return call, but I will probably be too busy to talk to them during business hours.

I am planning on paying for mine tomorrow, I still have to ask Bruce about one more part tomorrow, but the headers are a definite GO!
