Looks good. I'm researching which headers to buy for my SS. What brand are those?

the y-pipe is kinda shitty...Much better designs out now. The newer tsp y-pipe design is a true merge, and has much better flow. I had some hooker 1 3/4's, with their y-pipe back in 04. I changed to ARH 1 7/8 and their y-pipe, and with no other changes, I gained 30rwhp. Most of that was from the bigger primaries, but the merge on the y-pipe contributed to the results as well.

Was it easy getting the car on bricks like that? I might have to do that soon.
