I heard bbk had a new style long tube that fits in pretty good from the pic it looks like they fit a lot better than my pacesetters did,if you got the money go kooks,arh,qtp,those are way better quality, my pacesetters where kind of a pain but they work

I just put in some LPP's yesderday, I got them in with the car only up about 10 inches, with the Y pipe still welded to the passenger one. Went in really easy. I haven't really had too much trouble with any but SLP like I said before. Those are a serious project.

I have a set of BBK LT's and they fit very well. The passengers side is a little close to the floor board but not bad. As far as instalation goes i set mine in place before i dropped my motor in but i can say the passenger side fell out on the ground when i got everything bolted up.

Pacesetter Lts and ORY, 0 Problems. 01SS No Steering Knuckle removal and no grinding the engine TAB. Nothing. Just smooth.
And I have done 2 other Pacesetter installs on 01-02 SS and WS6. Also no problems.

Got my LS6 intake manifold, and my headers that I got fell through, so now that I'm looking for another set, I'm wondering which long tubes do you guys say have the easiest install/best fitment for these cars? Exhaust wise the only other modification is a 3 inch borla adjustable catback.
These are the last parts I'm buying before I get the car tuned finally and will be done with the mods.
Basically want to know if there's a brand I should go with from the install perspective because as far as I'm concerned the power gain differences from slp, to pacesetter, etc are to small to warrant any concern on a regular bolt on car. I mean, I've installed ebay headers on other cars that were a pain to install, then some that were easy as hell to do. And the same seems to have gone for namebrand headers. I installed a set of pacesetters on my 3 valve mustang, and after changing the exhaust setup on it, went with some ebay headers and they were a piece of cake to install in comparison to the pacesetters.

Mine are 8+ years old and look brand new.

It's not bad on a lift. Gotta pull the steering knuckle, unbolt the motor mount, and jack the engine up a little bit to get them it but that's no big deal in the air. On jack stands I'm sure it's a pain in the ***. This is something I'd expect from a 1 7/8 headers. Unfortunately the Kooks 1 3/4 require the same amount of work, with a smaller primary tube.
