SLP Header what else is needed?
SLP Header what else is needed? I bought a set of used SLP Heasers. All the came with was the headers and the cats. I know I need header gaskets and header bolts. What else is needed and what Y pipe will fit the. I have SLP Loud Mouth exhaust. Thanks!!!
On that one the Y-pipe that goes with it. Or a competent shop can fab one up. Stock bolts can be used on headers. And either 02 extensions or finding 02s that have a longer harness. I think the corvette rears are the ones I used. Which SLP header are they? The 1st or 2nd design?

Yea he could do that. But he also said he is going to run cats. Now a competent exhaust shop can fab up a Y-pipe or call SLP to get a replacement. I used to run their 1st design Long tubes years ago. They did a revision a few years ago. The 1st design is a pain to install and are very low. Something to consider if your car is lowered. Some people splice their 02s, get extensions, repin the PCM or get 02s with a longer harness. Your call on what you want to do. Get ready for that set-up to be very loud!!! Also what year of car are you installing it into? 98-00 have some emissions equipment that will be no longer used as those headers don't or probably don't have provisions for it. And if you have a LS1 intake you will need to plug off the EGR tube. The factory MLS gasket is cheap and work great for gaskets. SLP longtubes and the loudmouth was my 1st exhaust (no cats). But that was along time ago and now running ARH/GMMG.

Verdad Gallardo Then you can repin the PCM like Fry had suggested. And the 2nd design has a lot better ground clearance. Had thought you was Stateside. Your Y-pipe situation maybe a bit tougher. But still contact SLP for a replacment of build one. You should have the LS6 intake(no EGR or AIR fittings). If the headers has the tubes. Cut them off and weld up the holes.
