Default Buying Pacesetter headers today!

Well tell me if you think I got a good deal. Pacesetter longtube headers, ORY, and 02 extensions for $485 shipped. All brand new. Also should I exect .2 or .3 in the 1/4 mile? How long should the install take? I know theres tones of threads on it, but I just wanted more information. Thanks

I have the same headers. Mine went in fine. It's a matter of taking off the right things and putting it back together in sequence. With my install I learned it's easier to just remove something if it's going to hinder the install. Don't try to find some mickey mouse way to NOT remove something. The coilpacks, coolant pipe, EGR, AIR, dipstick are all relatively easy to remove. By removing them right off the bat you save yourself a lot of headache.

I have a few new questions about headers. On the install do they both go in from the bottom? Or does one go in from the top? Also is an ls1 harder or easier to do than an lt1?

they go in from the bottom. I got everything you got for the same price. Dude dont even think about the time it takes cause youll end up like me breakin a header bolt. What a nightmare.........heres my older thread for the pacesetters. This is my 2nd time doing lts btw..............

Both go in from the bottom, make sure you get the car high enough in the air.
Do poly motor mounts while your doing headers.
Its faster to install headers in an LS1 rather than LT1.
