Is this a GM warranty, or one of those aftermarket warranties?

well..if you blew up your motor due to...lets just say not enough back pressure and they could prove that it was infact due to you putting on headers and exhaust then your motor warrienty is gone...but your electrical one is still there? see what im saying. so if you mod somthing and a problem comes up b/c of that somthing you modified then you get to fix it...not them good luck!

They are supposed to prove the aftermarket part caused the problem (that's how the law is written, doesn't always happen) but like waiting2bl33d said if the window motors die, that has nothing to do with headers, and should still be covered
