Got'em installed yesterday and everything turned out good. I did have to do some grinding on the steering knuckle to clear one of ther primaries but not much, i had to go back to using the stock size oil filter, i kinked in a couple of the primaries on the driver side to compensate for engine movement so there was no dinging the Canton oil pan. There is plenty of starter clearance, b/c of the narrower exhaust port angle on the AFR's i had to kink in one of the primaries on my old jethots, but not with these. These headers are gorgeous and are worth doing a little work to make them fit!
They look very nice, worth the little bit of work. Got a couple things on my list to pickup first but these are coming soon (hopefully they still got them).

I have had my LPP headers on now for a month or so. While the pictures above show that bright, polished "chrome" like look, you can count on them to turn a copper/tan color quickly with some multi-color accents where some areas of the pipes get the hottest. There are some places that are bright blue in color too. Mine turned this way in the first day of driving.
Of course this is very normal for stainless steel to do once exposed to high exhaust heat. I personally dont mind it at all in fact, it looks pretty cool. They definitely have a better look than rusty or aged Jet-Hot coating. Plus they will last forever.
