Experiences with Young's LT headers, y-pipe, and trans x-member kit?

Folks,

It appears that most have gone with either the stock LS manifold or Hawk's LT headers, made by Stainless Works, and built a custom y-pipe. There are also many positive posts regarding the quality and fit of the Hawk's headers.

Young's F-body Motorsports offers a kit including a set of LT headers (also made by Stainless Works), y-pipe, and modified trans crossmember, however I haven't found any discussion about this kit.

Does anyone have experience / knowledge of the quality and fit of these components?

First off, WELCOME to TGO! You'll likely find someone here to answer any & every thirdgen-related question you can come up with..

To address your question, (instead of me re-typing what's already been covered in some detail), you'd probably get the best answer by searching for 'fbodymotorsports' in the Vendor Review forum... There's a lot of info there..

And again - welcome aboard.

I didn't know fbody motorsports was selling swap headers. Though from the description and images they appear to be the exact same headers that hawks is selling (both say made by stainless).
