I have had 2 sets now: 1 5/8" with the 5.7 LS6; and 1 7/8" with the 427.
They come jet-coated, so they look chrome. No problems so far. The only thing I do not like is that the collector is 2 1/2" (good for stock, but not great for my 3" custom exhaust).
Talk to Peter or Doug and tell I said they would take special care of you!

Just got them installed, bolt right up, plenty of clearence for wires (way more than stock). They did not come with gaskets though, minor welding to get them to fit stock cats.
