Mid Length Headers?

Found a Pair of Mac Mid Length Headers for sale for 130 Locally. Wondering if anyone has had any experience with them and will they work for the LS1 Iroc? I searched but couldn't find anything. Thanks for your help.

street demon used a set of hustler ones on his car and seems very happy, just make sure they're for a 3rd gen

Re: Mid Length Headers?

MAC mids dont clear the stock 3rd gen K-member. Might clear a tubular, but by then go with a quality set of headers. No idea if they kick out to the sides like 4th gen long tubes, been too long to remember
