A lot of people seem to like the LG Pro Long Tube headers. They're a bit pricey if you ask me. Next month I'll be purchasing a set of Dynatech Supermaxx LT's. The design, to me, appears to be identical. Also, you can get them with hi-flow cats for $1495 + shipping.

Yeap, I have the LG pros on my car and love them. Quality is top notch and fit and finish is perfect.

Dynatech Supermaxx LT headers here. Great quality, installation wasn't too bad and the price with high-flow cats was much more reasonable than LGs.

Corvette Garage has them for about $1489: http://www.corvettegarage.com/produc...-corvette.html

www.tbyrne.com also has them for about $1495.

QTP or Quick Time Performance makes a really nice Tri-Y header,

http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/.../c5headers.php

I know alot of folks suggest all the popular manufactures but I have heard alot of good things about this header. Definitely worth a look

The Dynatechs come with everything you need in one box Clamps, cats, x-pipe. you can do the install yourself in one afternoon. Now put some Borla stingers behind them and you will draw a lot of attention It really is a great sounding system

I just may do that soon But my friend is looking to port and polish my heads and we will be adding a cam with that so do you think all that will make thecar too loud ?? I don't want to attract every cop within a 5 mile radius ya know.
