Default Gettin headers soon!

I have the Loudmouth exhaust system on my car with an SLP Y-pipe and I'm about to be buying a set of LT's (not sure which kind yet). Will the headers fit on my SLP Y-pipe or do I need to get an ORY-pipe. Also i had a set of Mac headers on the car before but they caused the motor to start leaking so much oil I had to have it completely rebuilt; so any suggestions on a good set of LT headers?

I have the same setup on my 00 SS, but I dont think you can use the slp y-pipe. you will have to buy an aftermarket one. I have heard a lot of good things about Pacesetter headers, many people say they are good quality for the price. Plus TSP has them with the catted ypipe for $700. Or you can spend the extra money and get QTP headers and never have to worry about headers again. hope this helps

^^^ And for $700 you can get the same setup with cats on the pipe. Do you guys think that having an ORY pipe cause cause any problems like my oil problem I mentioned above?

Just like it says. If you are gonna delete the AIR and EGR then get the race style headers. Otherwise you will have to buy blockoff plates later. I think the non emission headers look better too. Less clutter and also easier to swap plugs, as well as losing weight

Nevermind The headers delete the AIR and EGR. I got stupid for a minute there, but I have LS1 Edit so i can tune it once the headers are installed
