Thanks

Will there be any combo deal with the Y pipe?

AS this is my first time doing headers, what other items do you suggest? Are the standard included gasksts good enough, or is it suggested that I get the GM gaskets?

I already purcahsed EGR/AIR block off plates as well as o2 from another store, so I won't need those.

Any other items?

Thanks

Sean said the standard gaskets are a paper style. Get the GM ones. I got Percy's Seal 4 Good gaskets, read some good reviews on em.

Good time to do:
Plugs n Wires
Poly motor mount
New o2s
Cutout(s)

Get extensions, repin pcm, or Corvette rear o2s. Upstream o2 harness doesn't reach new bung position.

GL can't wait for these!!!

I'm going to be running these on a LQ9 swap. I'm in need of new O2's as it is, and since this will be a cat-less install I have the computer set up for upstream O2's only. Can I just pick up the corvette downstreams and plug n go? or will they not give proper reading for any reason? It'd be nice because these are inexpensive and have enough extension for the install. Sorry I'm pretty green on this and thanks for any advice.

Great thanks, will go with the GM OEM gaskets. Already got extended o2s.

Will need to do plugs and wires (but my stock plugs only have 32000 miles, so not sure if I really need to do these?), and motor mounts.

Depends on the plugs ya got as for the lifespan of em.

My car has 44k on it so they are prob the plugs from the factory, haha.

So I'm doing them and granatelli wires, mounts, cutouts, and repining the pcm to save some $$$ on o2s in the future.

Awesome, good news!

How's progress on the true dual (including out the back)?

NP guys. Thanks again..

_JB_: We haven't done anything on the true dual systems yet. A couple intake kits, and truck headers are going to be more expensive than we anticipated. Mold fees etc. So we put them on hold for a little while. I would still expect a prototype sent out by the end of the year from us though.

Thanks
