Default 3week wait for LPE longtubes!!!

Well, I finally broke down and decided to buy a set of headers. Actually, my significant other, does not like to ride in the corvette so I am not concerned with the noise level. I love the sound.

LPE's from Lingenfelter - $770
LPE's from Ecklers - $ 729 + 35shipping - Only problem - 3 week wait!!

After hearing the wait I ordered them. I want them on for my first trip to the track in April. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Hey that isn't bad! When I was still thinking of getting the LPE headers, LPE themselves wouldn't quote me an availability time. :D

One piece of advice, when you have the manifolds off, put a nice new fresh set of sparkplugs in. It may be a while till you get to them again. ;)

Thanks Scorp, but I only have 200miles on my current plugs.

I change them every year - cheap insurance.
