Default Winter project costs

Now guys, I know that i've only had my Vette for a few months but I'm already planning my mods for the winter, but I'm gonna need a little help. I am already planning to put corsas on this year, but I was wondering how much more would it be to put headers on too. Also, will having headers affect gas mileage? And if so, by how much? Just curious.

Michael

Headers and a proper tune.... should increase mpg.

I am thinking winter as well...... 383, fix leaks, new clutch, seats, etc.....
