I’m going to be doing a header swap and I was wondering if I should go ahead and get some other stuff done while the mechanic is in there.

It’s a 2000 Z28 with around 150,000 miles

Here’s what I have so far:
1) Dynatech Sumermax Long Tube headers & Y pipe
2) Percy’s Header gaskets
3) Stage 8 Locking header bolts
4) MSD 8.5 wires and NGK TR55 plugs
5) While I’m at it, I’m going to be replacing all 4 Oxygen sensors.
Denso 234-4025 - For the front
Denso 234-4617 - For the rear

What else do you guys recommend?

Thanks

Thanks, I was something hat I was thinking as well.

What brand would be good?

I've been doing research and it seems that polyurethane mounts would be the best for my application.

I'm going to take it to the shop next week.

Any other suggestions?

Prothane motor mounts. You'll need to shave them down a little to fit in the clam shell. I bought a spare set of clam shells and pedestals off eBay beforehand to prep and paint. It was nice not having that added down time in the middle of the project

1) I would save the coin and just get some TSP Stainless headers and ORY (if your state allows it)

2) No need for the fancy MLS Percy gaskets, OEM GM MLS gaskets are good and cheap

5) If you don't plan on running cats skip the rear O2s. If you don't plan on using O2 extensions for the long tubes then you can open up the PCM plug and flip the signal wires in the harness for the front and rear O2 sensors and run them that way.

As stated before Poly motor mounts are a good idea while you're in there.

Shave them down? Mine went in just fine last month. You have to clean the factory rubber crap off the inside of the clamshell, but that's easy with a screwdriver.
