did i get the right longtubes in the mail? did jethot send me the right longtubes? one of them has two fittings for the egr and that. the other has one fitting, all 3 fittings have 2 holes, they are all shaped kinda like an oval. and there is a small round hole in the middle of all 3. sorry for being a pain. the gm dealer isnt sure which gaskets i need, they are being a real pain
I'm not sure what you are asking or what year your car is, but 98-99s have two fittings for the AIR (one on each side) and an EGR fitting on the Passenger side. 2000-02s shouldn't have fittings for the EGR, these only have the fittings for the AIR. As far as gaskets..check with www.thunderracing.com under exhaust accessories. They carry all of the GM gaskets which everyone around here including myself seems to prefer.

the 00 does have egr, the 01+ doesnt, i know my longtubes have two fittings on one and one fitting on the other im assuming since you said the 98-99 has two fittings for air one on each side and an egr fitting that i got the right ones because i guess my 00 has air on each side and i know it has egr.

they came with paper header gaskets, no egr or air gaksets, i bought them at the dealer for 1.98 each. i was told by some people dont use the jethot header bolts, they look nice though they are black, i was told to reuse the stock header bolts.
98-00 two fittings on passanger side(one for AIR, one for EGR), one AIR fitting on drivers side.....
01-02 one fitting on each side since they already have the egr-less ls-6 intake manifold....
unless u live in cali or can find no way around a sniffer.....nix the AIR/EGR systems....especially EGR....why would anyone want to send dirty air into their engine? plus its a decent weight loss, like 15-20lbs off the front end.
