Kooks headers
I did do a search and found threads relating to the sale of and the fit and finish.
Outside of that, are the people that have them installed happ/satisfied with them???? Does anyone have substantiated power gains?

Re: Kooks headers (FLYNLO)
Hey FLYNLO,I was told that the Kook's are very nice headers but they are not a true long tube header.They are more of a midlength header.For the price $1300 to $1200 I would spend the extra money and go with the L.G.'s.It is just a thought,if you want the Kook's I'm sure they will suit your need's.Go L.G.'s all the way! :steering:

Re: Kooks headers (FLYNLO)
I have my Kooks with cats waiting to go on. A friend put them on his 03Z (albeit sans cats), car pulls quite a bit harder then before.
I'll get to the dyno this spring with them on.

Re: Kooks headers (Cobra4B)
Yes this true,If you compare the cost with the LGs there is only a few hundred dollars differance cost from the kook's.That's my only point.The kook's are great headers I almost got some for my Z. :D

Re: Kooks headers (Brandon619)
Well I got my Kooks 1 3/4ths w/ cats for $1180 shipped! The LGMS were over $1800. Just not worth the difference. Yes, the headers are brand new from Kooks, and no I'll never tell how I got that pice! :jester

Re: Kooks headers (Cobra4B)
Wow,where did you get that price!I got mine from Lou himself for $1495.00 shipped.I'm a member of Z06vette.com he was giving discount to all members.That's cool kook's are nice,but no 1800.00 for LG's.300 bucks is worth it for me!Later :thumbs:

As for the "most power" being only achievable sans cats, I would have to beg to differ. With my old FLPs I gained 3rwhp without the cats.
