I have the LPP stainless headers and ORY. The quality is top notch, and by that I mean on par with Kooks/ARH. The headers are all stainless, the welds are perfect, fitment was perfect (didnt have to grind down the casting tab on the block as with lots of other brands). The ORY also is perfect, tucks up real nicely, alot better than most other brands. I HIGHLY recommend these.

I made a decision to go with LPP headers & y-pipe and will purchase them soon. I've read nothing but good things about them. It's really hard to beat quality SS headers + SS y-pipe for $600 shipped. Hopefully LPP runs another sale of $500 soon.

I bought a set and attempted to install them over the weekend. These were replacing my Pacesetters. Passenger side went in great. Driver's side not so great. The front primary is squarely against the side of the motor mount. I have poly motor mounts. If I put in the front bolt and attempt to line up the rear, the rear bolt is off a good 1/4". I contacted LPP and was told to enlarge the hole and that they had never heard of such a problem before. I'm glad to see that CayenneRedV6 has the same issue. I've installed numerous sets of headers on LS1s and this is the first time I've seen such contact with the motor mount. I'm attempting to resolve the issue with LPP, but if I don't get anywhere today, I'll likely be buying a set of ARHs or QTPs instead.

I had mine installed and there were minor issues. Several of the stock plug wires did not want to fit on the driver side with the lpp headers installed. The boots rested directly on the headers and one would not even go on at all. It took alot longer to finish the job than expected. We had to use several msd's wires with the heat shield which still might not work. Am still not sure if i would do it again??? Anybody else whith this problem?

haha, no way...look at all the posts below yours in this very thread noting fitment issues. In those few posts so far we have: primaries hitting the motor mount, bolt holes not lining up and plug wires not fitting with the headers installed

I've decided to return mine and go with a different brand. I was hoping that for the price, these would work great. I was in on the very first batch of Pacesetters years ago when everyone was saying they wouldn't fit and they fit great, so I figured I'd give this a shot. After my experience, I've decided to spend the money for a quality header and go with Kooks or ARH and be done with it.

Great results here,slid right in tuck up nice under car look excelent. The #3 plug boot was a little close but nothing a ziptie didn't take care of. I ran pacessetters in the past and the quality and fitment of these are night and day in difference.
