Default Using 01-02 Headers on 00

I'm about to buy some 01-02 SLP LT's and I have a 2000. I know I am going to have to delete my EGR, but is there anything else I am going to have to do.
Thanks,
Joe

You might have to block off the AIR too. Not sure though.

you might not want to buy slp lt's you will scrape them everywhere...they hang about 1-2" lower than other lt's not to mention their power gain is not anymore than others....actually a set of kooks dynoed like 15 rwhp more than those... and here i was thinking all headers dyno within the same hp

Yeah but $600 for SLP LT's, Cats, and Ypipe shipped is why I am thinking about buying them. Also I don't plan on lowering my car either.

hmm...well that sounds like a deal...i've just heard how unhappy people are with them...you could get pacesetters/tsp catted y pipe for near that...and have no issues...they would install MUCH easier and the only downfall is they are not stainless

Air tubes are the same 00-02. Like you pointed out, you'll need to delete the EGR.. unless the headers have the egr tube on them. Which some 01-02 headers did. Not sure about the SLP's

Thanks for the info WILWAXU, I am looking forward to installing these and hoping to see some good HP gains. I dynoed my 2000 SS about a month ago and put down 316hp and 327tq with only a lid and catback. I am hoping to pick up 20hp with these and probably do a ls6 intake in a couple months.
