Long Tube Headers??
I am not sure which LT headers to get. Does anyone have any that they like or dislike?
I am looking for the loudest best performing LT's.
Any recomendations?

One of the fabricators from Kooks left to start his own line of headers (American Racing Headers) also, heard they are easy to install!

American Racing Headers from Vette Doctors
American Racing Headers from Vette Doctors.
Just had a set installed. Great quality and fit, wicked sound improvement.
I will have my car dyno'd soon, so as of right now I can't give a definative power increase value.
Just my .02.

I cannot wait to get the American Racing Headers on from Andy at A&A. I heard that these headers are doing well and much cheaper than the LG with probably the same results.
This should sound great with the Quad GHLs.

I'm leaning towards the Dynatech when I get some. Nice quality and decent price.

I just installed some LG's on my FRC and I love them. I did the work with a friend in his garage, not fun and not safe with out a lift (Bad idea on our part). Had everything off within an hour and a half then it took us about 10 hours to get floor jacks high enough to slide the new headers in. Worth it though.

! I flatbacked the install of my LG Pros in about 4 hours total. Of course it was like the 5th pair I have installed
. Sound/ quality/ performance wise I like the LG Pros the best. I only wish the collectors were bolt together instead of slip for ease of dis-assembly. But that was done on their part to aid in flow-ability. Also I have not been impressed with the Dynatech dyno numbers as compared to LG and Kooks. Call Lou or Bobby at LGM to get a dyno sheet comparison of most all long tubes compared to the LG Pros. I actually believe the SLP tuned length set-up was the second best as far as rwhp increase.

I have the Dynatech Supermaxx header system with Borla Stingers. I've had a ton of positive comments from people telling me how awesome my car sounds.
BTW - I also have a custom cam that helps the sound a little
