Those with QTP or Kook's inside.
 
I'm leaning towards these two headers and tried to do a search but found nothing, I was wandering if these headers all bolt on or do you have to WELD the "Y" pipe to the collectors? I want to be able to swap out the ORY pipe for a catted pipe easily during emissions. NO WELDING! If not what are some good stainless steel headers and ORY pipe setup's out there that I can swap out cat's or ORY pipes? no FLP or SLP's please. :judge: Thanx in advance.

Both have bolt on Y's

My Kook's came with band clamps, it would be an easy swap for inspection time.

I heard QTP's are a pain in the ass to install and the Kook's drop right in. A guy here locally has both and told me that.

Maybe it depends on what kind of car,fire bird or camaro and what year. :confused: I hear some had to disconnect one motor mount to slid them in. I wonder how difficult an install would be on a 01-02 camaro?

hm.... not really...every car is different for sure... but not enough to make a huge difference... maybe he couldnt get the car off the ground high enough to make it an easy install..???

again i have seen many cars.... 99-02s camaros and birds.... with no install headaches what so ever.... i am at the track like every week and see lots of fbodys there....most of them running QTPs...and are extremely happy...soon i'll be able to join them :D

Both those headers use the slip on collector, no welding needed..BTW, I have the Kook's stepped headers, I'm pretty happy with them. I think you will be happy with either header, just go with the best deal!
