They are beautiful - aren't they?
I put mine on the car the last weekend of 2006 - wanted to start the new year off right! What I couldn't believe was how easy it was to install them in my garage with only a couple of ramps and a floor jack.
If you haven't finished your install yet - have fun! They are well worth it and my car definitely has more power! Hopefully, I will be able to get some time tomorrow night to determine how much more power I now have after the install...

Your NOS will really like the headers. When I put on my dynatechs, the car felt much stronger on the juicy
Make sure you have plenty of beer when installing them. I went through 2 12 packs in the 3 nights I installed them. It made the install easier

I am not gonna get to install them til Feb they arrived a bit later than I hoped for, I gotta head to my ship tommorrow, I will get them the first week back. Since I set up the nitrous last May, I have added 42# injectors (to get the dry working well), an LS6 intake, the headers, shaner ported TB, and I have been playing with tuning with EFI Live. I am going to test the origional jetting vs the new mods mid Feb. Hoping 330-340 RWHP and about 350tq NA, and on spray I want to target a dry/wet combo for 500 at the wheels.

How much power would these LT add? I have a LS6 motor but had LS1 manifolds. I recently put TPIS headers on it. I am wondering how bad my motor starving with those LS1 manifods?

Nice. Whats with the cats though? We dont need no stinking cats.
One question for ya Beer. Do you ever get to drive this thing? Seems like your either working on it or out to sea. No time for the real fun.

LOL yep. I have not even left yet and I am ready to Come Back!
I am really looking forward to dyno'ing and seeing the changes from last year.
Being its apart for the headers I will spend my spare time on the ship surfing for heads...
Yea it seems that way! The wife drives it when I am gone, although she makes me take the bottle out before I go.
