Header Install $$$ ?
What's a reasonable price for header installation on a new Z06?
If doing headers, are you crazy not to go ahead and do the Thermal Abs....? Combined installation price?
Any suggestions for a good shop to do the work?

Definitely do the thermal abs and while you're at it have the headers and X - pipe ceramic coated. Heat is your enemy.

Well, for the Seattle area, I don't have a clue. Down here we all use

They have several colors to choose from and they do a very nice job.

There is a coating place down in Auburn that I can't recall the name of Corvettes of Auburn might could help you out there. If you haven't bought them yet then order them already done. You are going to want a tune after install so be sure you find a place that can do both. Since your in Bothell I recommend Ellis at Speed Secrets in Monroe. He did the tune on mine after I installed my own. Took about 30min and then we took it for a good shake down drive to verify everything. I personally prefer a road tune versus a peak HP dyno tune since I track my car regularly. You can usually find him over in the LS1Tech NW section.

I think this is where most of the local racers go. They are located in Auburn:
