I like my LG Pros- it was pretty much a toss up between LG and American Racing Headers.
You can order them from lgmotorsports.com There is also a link to the left somewhere.
It does depend on your application too. Big cubic inch Kook's or American Racing 1 7/8".

They'll bolt up fine to the catback.
They are pretty easy to install. I installed mine myself with the help of my mom (lucky her for letting me use her garage). I only needed her help to hold the header while I moved the starter around enough to slide the passenger header in.
I used the direction from ls1howto.com but didn't remove the valve covers.
Pretty easy.
If you get them and need any help just drop me a pm, I'll come down and help. It looks like your only about 3.5hrs away.

Thanks for the info and offer!
Should not be much of a deal, just have yet to get under the vette and take a look around.
Where is West Allies? never heard of it-- used to live in Appleton.

I've got Dynatech SuperMaxx headers and I love 'em - they gotta be one of the top three, if you figure the top three are LG, AR's and Dynatech's - EG had/has Dynatech's on Grond, and I figure if they are good enough for him, they are good enough for me
Do a search of EG's threads from this past week - EG had a write up about Dynatech headers he installed, and he had pics of the above 3 side by side for comparison
Here's the link to the EG "side by side" comparison: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1742259

I was hoping this would make things easier, as usual it just opens all the possibilities!!
What do the American Racing headers cost? Know the LG Pro is going for about 1500 now.
How about the Dynatech SuperMaxx?

I thought that the Dynatech Supermaxx added the most HP and in my opinion, why spend money on headers if your not adding HP. I'd like to see the HP gains of LG's or Amer. Racing. I've been looking into long tube headers for a little while now.

Another vote for the LG Pros. If money is not an issue and you with to get as must hp as possible lg is the way to go. You can find much cheaper headers but if you want every bit of hp lg is the way to go.
