You don't want 1 7/8 headers without large cubes.

I am thinking about N20 as well. Will I benefit then or do I still need a bigger motor than a 346? Thanks.

After going back and forth I've finally decided to go with the LG Streets. 02 Z06 that will probably never go beyond bolt on items. I did a lot of reading and also called LG (and a couple other vendors). I don't think I'm giving up anything going with the Streets on my application and the current deal is pretty good bang for the buck.
Just my .02 or in this case my $895

I have the LG Streets and I'm happy with them overall. For a few extra bucks (few hundred actually) you can set up to the American Racing ones which have a little better build quality and ball flanges.
LG's and AR's are going to give you similar hp and similar difficulty (or fun) installing.

Well, they are cheap as hell, make power, sound good, and are made of stainless.
