Def not to spendy at all, for headers mounts etc. 1350$, thats a great deal. I wish I would of seen these guys before I paid out the *** for my kit, from a local guy.. I think my headers were 950$, but they are very nice.. I would like to see the kit these guys make, there prices are pretty good..

Well if I was a guessing man Id say hes purchasing Hinson Headers to sell with his kits but I could be wrong. Also the mounts are easy to make. Id say with a jig it might take a couple hours work and your done. The wiring if done right takes another couple hours. I would personally charge 400-450 for wiring and mounts. Headers are 600 so your looking at 1000-1050. Now if you did your own headers it would be a lot cheaper but the LT headers are much nicer.
My swap Mounts, wiring, Headers, cross member mod cost me $650 so your looking at a 100% profit if its over 1300.

Did you make them yourself?? If I would of made them myself then yes it would of been cheaper for me, but I paid a fabricator to make them. For a direct swap in kit, I would of paid the $1350, becuse I cant weld.. I doubt they use the hinson headers, because they said they dont use the subframe spacer. I dunno though..
What headers are the LT ones?
Bing!
