LT1 Headers?

[JoeliusZ28]

No doubt about it. Moisture + high temps = rust.

Are you going to keep the car? If so, get stainless and be done.

If you're going to sell it in a few years, just get the coated ceramic.

Stay away from high temp painted... It's garbage.

So your 7 years with barely any rust makes sense. For anyone who sees rain or daily driving... not so much.

I have the old school heat wrap on my pacesetters. It's the DEI titanium wrap. What a huge pita to put on,but it does look kinda cool. I think it's probably the worst way to go though.

That is where the issue lies. I will have to drop the engine shortly, so I would like to put them on when that happens. But the only available stainless headers ones are the ones that Kyle are offering. I plan on keeping this car until I get shipped to the grave, but I am thinking that I will be changing stuff around a little down the road, so the coated wouldn't be too bad if I have to replace them in 5-10 years. And I mean, this is, by no means, a show car. It is just a summer fun driver.

Take it from someone with kooks, get them. They are worth every penny and then some. Marylandspeed is the cheapest and they can have them jet hot coated to about any color. I couldnt be happier with them. Oh and did i mention they sound mean as hell

Actually, I have found them for cheaper than MS has them for. Hmmm

Did you see my link with the LPP stainless headers and y-pipe for $425 shipped?



Edit: Nevermind - saw he replied and said sold. Bummer!

Unsure when you need these by, but I will be having LS1 and LT1 f-body headers stocked this winter! Polished 321 stainless!

[birdie2000]

Reallllly... what size primaries/collectors and what price point? Are they an original design or will they mimic another popular brand such as LPP/OBX/etc. did with Kooks?

Yea, I was watching for him to reply to that thread. Even made and account and everything

Timeline is not set at the moment. It will vary depending on what went wrong with the car and how much I decide to do to it in the process of fixing it.

I bought my OBX stainless lts for $330 shipped I was real worried about figment but they are great.

1 7/8s stepped to 1 3/4

Unfortunately the place sold out but I'm sure they will get them in again at some point.

Been happy with my KOOKS 1 3/4 stepped to 1 7/8. Picked them up used with KOOKS Y for $600

My manufacturer already has the LT1 design, and unfortunately I don't have much info on them, however I do know they have a great reputation for fitting very well!
LS1 is a new design that not only fits great, but will eliminate the whole system being slip fittings. Has flanges from the headers to the Y and a nicer merge in the Y as well!

I installed a set of Pacesetter headers on a 1995 LT1 Camaro and the left header collector was only about an inch away from the floor pan support. Very poor engineering if I have to say so. I ended up smashing the collector that attaches to the exhaust pipe to flatten it out.
