Default Anyone using Pacesetter 4th gen headers?

Ive read that some ppl have used pacesetter longtubes for 4th gen f-bodies on the swaps into older 2nd gen camaros and X-body novas.The main modification is heating up drivers side header at the collecter and bending it straight from what Ive read.Anyone on here done this before?Whats the best way to do it?I was gonna buy some swap headers but everyone that sells them tells me that it will be a week or more before they ship.

Marktanium had a great write-up on this in his build thread. He was also trying to sell his, but I don't know if he already did or not.

How did you bend yours?Did you bolt it up to a engine like Marktanium did?I figured clamping the headers by the flange to a large sturdy metal table and bending them that way.Ive been looking at Dynatech musclemaxx longtubes.They are LS swap headers but I dont know if I like the way they routed the drivers side primary tubes.Looks like it may cause problems.

Clamped them to the metal table and put some heat to the tubes. We bent them in the tubes and not the collector.
