Default Melrose Headers

I just recently became a dealer for Melrose Motorsports,and putting together pricing now.Compared to what I have seen the pricing online w/other vendors....you should be very happy!I will sale complete kits,the headers,etc.
I am not a new face here on the forum.....I own C3s,and do mopst my business over there,and the earlier cars.I own/run a restoration shop,and try to do all this parts business,so I spread myself pretty thin,and haven't gotten over here much,but I will let you know that I am a dealer for Melrose,Zip,Smart Parts,ACI,Corvette Image,a authorized reseller for Tremecs,a dealer for Vette Brakes,and Products,AMP Performance,and in the process of setting up accounts w/Findanza(clutch kits,flywheels,etc.).and Advanced Clutch Technologies for my TKO,and T56s conversion kits.saying all this....if there's something that you all are interested in....give me a shout,and I can probably save you some coin........

Already have the melrose headers installed but I would like to give them a thumbs up. I really like them. Great bang for the buck.

Wow those are nice looking.

Would these happen to be 50 state legal on a 2000 coupe?

You would have to check,but they have the bungs,so the sensors would still give the info to the engine......??????

Do any long tube headers have a CARB number? I could be wrong, but I think that answer is no.

That's a certain NO...if there were 50-state legal long tube headers available you wouldn't even need to ask, the vendor would be shouting it from the highest mountain tops.

That's what I figured. I live in TN, so I luckily don't have to follow these CARB rules.

Thats what I thought. But I see people with long tubes and then catted mid pipes. Makes no sense as this wouldn't be emmision legal anywhere so why run the cats?

Nice headers though. I might pick up a set and then swap back when it comes test time.
