Default Pro or street

Finally decided on headers 160 degree thermostat, leave my stock intake, no oil catch can.

Looks like LG headers are in my future but on the fence with what type, LG pro or LG street. My vette may get to 475-490 HP but thats it. No drag racing and no regular auto cross, maybe a little high spirited stop sign launches. I love the sound of headers. Dealer tells me to go Pro series, I kinda think street is the best way to go. Anyone have LG's if so what type and how hard were they to put on. Any issues I should be aware of? They should fit into my stock mufflers with Npp, correct. I really appreciate all the help the forum members have been, its a great place to spend time on browsing and talking with other vette owners. Too bad theres no place to get together and meet face to face unless ya'll want to come to good old N. Dakota. C'mon, its really not that bad......

One of the best on the market.

I would just call them 972.429.1963...they're TX friendly and should be able to answer any questions you have about either.

I installed my set, solo, in 4 hours flat. But, I do have a lift, and that made it a very easy install.

Good luck

I would like to replace my Kook's 1 7/8 with the new 1 3/4 Pfadt, so that I may hopefully gain some more low end tq for my DD.
