The Right Stuff ? Ok, I think I've got the right stuff coming. I already had the Magnaflow cat back and Monday, I ordered the Kooks Stainless Headers and Y Pipe from Speed Engineering. The order confirmation said it would take 4 or 5 days. Soooooooooo, by the end of this week or the first of next week they should arrive! I need you guys that have already had headers installed on your Gen 4 Camaros to let me know if this looks like the right stuff!
I have the Stainless Magnaflow #15684 catback, Kooks 6506S 1-7/8" stainless long Tube Headers and the Kooks 6502S stainless Y pipe. Is there anything else I need to get all of this stuff installed? Here is what they look like:

Go here: http://photobucket.com/ sign up on this site, it's free. Once you do that, you can upload from your computer to photobucket and then, use the photobucket link to your picture and post your picture here. Did that make sense?

he told me i shouldnt do the 383 stroker because of something to do with the god awefull opti
said itll cause it to act wierd or something

but im curious what yalls opinions are?
i know the 383 is a very very popular build with the lt1's

I think he doesn;t know what he's talking about because the displacement of the engine has nothing to do with the timing or spark delivery fromt he opti. however, since you are doing such an in depth build and are concerned wih opti reliability, you may look at doing the lt4 conversion or the LS coil packs

posts in regional forums don't count towards your post count. look at me, I've been on this forum for almost 2 years, but still says I have 44 posts. those were posts I made outside of the reginal section in off topic forums and technical forums. ***** up the introduction forum to get your post count up

well there was a serious problem with scammers trolling the forum and responding to peoples wanted ads for parts, claiming they had the part etc and told them to send money to them. low and behold, there was no part and the honest forum member was out money. so now you have to have 50 posts that are relevant to the site to be able to view classifieds, or have been registered for so long

As far as the conversion
Isn't that like $1500?
Haven't really done any research or even what all it entails.
Info?
