The system shown appears to be an LT1.

ARH, pricing? Primary diameter?

Guys, These systems will fit LT1 and LT4 with all emissions fittings. Will fit L98 without fittings. They're 100% made in the US and are all 304 S/S. Like all ARH systems they feature merge collectors with scavenger spikes. The exhaust is all 3" till the rear axle where it reduces to 2-3/4". This allows you to splice the system into your existing factory exhaust without any welding or mate it to your aftermarket set-up. We can custom size the outlet to any desired size from 2-1/2" to 3". If you have questions feel free to PM me a contact number and I'll call with all the details including price. Thanks.

If you guys need the A.I.R fittings, we can make that happen as you can see in the pictures posted previously. Our L98 headers were made specifically for the L98. We have a separate header for the LT1/4 and even a separate header for the ZR1 c4's.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Also be sure to check out our shop video that I posted above , it will give you a really good image of what it takes to do make a top quality product.

I like my TPIS headers. Especially when changing plugs. That is a spring ritual. Cap, rotor, plugs, fluids. I don't even have to get under the car or remove the starter.

I was on exotic muscles site today since I'm thinking about new headers myself. I liked what they had and thought there price on both the headers and the smoothflow dual exhaust was fair.

I'm still sorta hooked on the hooker headers. (sorry for the horrible pun) They come with everything I need, such as the stuff to modify the A/c bracket, etc. IDK, I still have some time to think more about it before I actually order them. thanks for all the help guys.

Guys, We'll have photo's of the system complete next week sometime. The one pictured is the LT1/4 and has the emissions fittings. The primary size is 1-3/4". the headers will work with straight or angle plug heads. From a quality standpoint, as anyone who's familiar with our C5 and C6 systems can attest, it simply doesn't get better.

I bought the Melrose exhaust kit and a used B&B 3 inch kit for an LT-1. I just took it to the exhaust shop where they will use the Melrose kit and then connect the B&B Mufflers and 3 inch pipes from the x pipe to the mufflers. I hope it sounds good.
