what else do i need for LT install? i'm probably going to order pacesetter lt's and catted y from TSP. i know i need 02 extensions but do i need anything else. do the headers come with bolts, gaskets and everthing. thanks in advance.
Well the headers come with everything you need, but considering you are ordering the pacesetters, they come with cheap paper gaskets. I would highly recommend ordering different gaskets for the install, to avoid leaks and such. Good luck with the install.
If you are keeping the AIR system hooked up and you get a fluttering sound after the install, you may need some restrictor plates: http://riptide63.homestead.com/restrictor.html

i ordered the catted y pipe and unfortunately for me they are out of stock for now but at least the headers are on the way and the y pipe should be available in a couple weeks. so i'll hopefully have a good project for the begining of the year.
Like others said, use stock new or used, depending on condition, exhaust gaskets.
Reuse the exhaust manifold bolts. If the ones that came with my Hooker LT's were ****, I don't think the bolts with the pacesetters are any better.
