Thanks for the positive feedback everyone!

What are you going to use for a PCM? What engine management are you using again?
LS7 OEM PCM & HPT software when it comes out (soon I hope!)
When can we take her out?
As soon as it fires up!

Looks like Turbo flanges on the end of those headers. Is that whats up or it is just a different flange your using?

Good to know it fits relatively easily in case I decide to do that one day in a Turbo Regal. Though, I'd be old school and drop the compression to 8:1 and put on a big ole hairdryer and be good to go. That would be a scary ride...20+ psi on a 427 LS7 in a G-Body...It would still be a Turbo Buick

They are high velocity merge collectors that neck down to 2-3/8" and then expand back up to 3-1/2" diameter before entering the "X" pipe.
