Default c3 lsx side pipes

I know a company that can make you side pipe headers for your C3 Vette that has any LSX engine in it. This is the first time these have been made available for sale to the general public. The company is in the process of their first production run of these Hooker "Laker" style side pipes! These will fit LS1/LS6/LS3/LS7 in your C3. They are 304 stainless steel headers and side pipes. They laser cut the flanges to match your heads (Round, D Port etc.). Built in the USA. They are currenty actively looking for additional customers. Tell them that you you saw this on CorvetteForum!!!!

You can find out more at Stainless Headers located in Fargo, ND. The guys name is Chris Stepp.

I am putting in a good word for him because he is building mine right now. I looked long and hard and finally found someone who has committed to build them for me. He will build them for you too!

Stainless Headers Inc. is using the 1" setback motor mount adapters for this build. The build is designed around Vetteworks LSX001X adapter plates. This mount allows you to clear the A-Arm and stock steering and puts the shifter in the original location for a T-56. Go to their website for more details.

The build includes the side pipes and headers. Heat shields not included.

I don't have any pics because these are the first of their kind and currently in the early stage of the build.

Look up their website and/or give Chris Stepp there a call. He will gladly tell you more!!

Thanks
