Default would like primary length info......

Looking for primary lengths on 1 7/8" headers from the big four manufactures.

LG - 1 7/8" = 27"
American racing - 1 7/8" = ??
Kooks - 1 7/8" = "25" (2" = 25")
Stainless works - 1 7/8" = ??

I made several phone calls and the "tech" guys selling them had no clue (besides LG, Anthony knew his product). Hoping some of you guys have measured, have contacts or have already been down this road. Any info is appreciated.....

Thanks....and your sure they did not lengthen the collector on the 2", which would make them seem the same overall length ?? (Slip fit correct ??)

Kooks uses ball and socket to connect headers to x pipe.
