Default Any reason not to get pacesetter lts?

Ive done my reasearch and the LS1 pacesetter lts seem to be the best bang for buck. Is there any reason not to get these headers and use another brand?

I realize that you can get stainless headers but I think these will be perfect for me. I have heard that pacesetters aren't equal length. Is this true and does it even matter?

You cannot go wrong with pacesetters, they are hard to beat for the price and ease of installation. If you need some pricing feel free to shoot me a pm!

Equal length does not matter, with unequal length tubes you'll have a wider torque band. These are great headers, I highly recommend them. Don't think you could go wrong with them.

Very easy to install. The coated race style is the way to go, unless you want to keep all the emissions stuff hooked up for some reason.

Just got my new set of Pacesetter Coated Race LT's & TSP ORY. I couldn't believe the welds were so good for the price & the flange is pretty thick. They look great. Can't wait to get them in.

ive had mine in for about 3 months and love them. no complaints here. i have the race style. they look great, fit great and the headers paired up with TSPs duals helped me pick up about 35hp, which was sweet.

great fit, and easy install, dump the gaskets though, the papers are worth a ****. reuse your gm's if you have less than 50,000 if more than that you might consider replacing them. Also getting the arp studs make the install a breeze if your working by your self, plus they look great, but 80.00 is alot for bolts but they are worth it. don't forget the antiseize.

In my opinion. They only reason NOT to get Pace Setters is because you have the $$ for the Kooks.

The only reason I wouldnt get the Pacesetters is if you like having an empty wallet.. I got mine for $375 coated shipped.

..for that price I can get 2 pairs of Pacesetters for the price of one pair of stainless ones...

Took me about 20 minutes to install them during my H/C install, they slipped in so easily I was baffled as well as my friend helping me, you will have no problems with them go for it.
