They have SS. Go to summitracing.com and put in the following part numbers:
Sidemount Headers: HOK-2224-3HKR
Sidetubes: HOK-50735-3HKR
The headers are actually cheaper than the chrome right now, well, until you probably add the extra shipping charge it has noted. But the tubes are $140 or so more.
I went with JetHot, but that was also before I knew they had SS. I don't know which I'd of picked had I known about the SS. For those with the SS have they turned blue at all? I heard they would turn blueish. I haven't installed the JetHot side pipes yet, but I think they are really nice and I'm glad I got them rather than chrome.

I saw those part numbers before....
When I check and submit the number at summitt.. says out of stock 2/14 expected.
I go to the Hooker website and look at the numbers and it is no longer listed.. Only item # 2234-HKR, and the pipe number starting with a 6 if I recall. I don't know it they changed the part number or not.
I need a bung for O2, so if I get coated will need to be special order as can't weld one in aftercoating.
If anyone knows the difference in part numbers,chime in.

Just went to Summit Site and see the difference in description. Price difference on the two: 2224-3HKR and 2234-HKR is neglegible
The bluing also concerns me with both s/s and chrome. Have the bluing on bike......Anyone with these have experienced the bluing... and s/s should hold up?

These #'s listed above are correct. I called mine in and they got the qoute from Hooker. Again, was a prepay/back-order deal.
Also some of the mag's (Corvette Enthusiasts) have an ad about Hooker's S/S applications.

Yes you can use 0000 steel wool I would try MOthers aluminum polish first though

As far as the O2 bung comment. I also need one and really didn't know it until after I ordered the pipes since I decided to upgrade to EFI after the fact. So I called up JetHot and asked for advice and he said since what I was doing was a custom application and didn't quite know how I wanted to position the sensor in the collector (I hear its a tight fit around the frame with an angle so you can't clearly see the sensor from the side view of the car), but he said it would be best to install the pipes, then install the O2 bung, and in the future I could send the pipes back to get recoated. He said that the coating can be ground off where the bung will be and then welded without affecting the rest of the coating.

Well I decided to get the stainless at Summit... AND they are in stock.
JCL does not make the covers anymore. Cobrapipes does in 27" or 36"
Going with the JCL spiral baffles though.
Tom:
enter summit part number in part number box for search:
HOK-2224-3HKR (headers)
HOK-50735-3HKR (pipes)
