Here is a link to some pictures of the headers installed and ground clearance.

I forget which is which as I don't have both sets in front of me. I am pretty sure though that the 98-99 have both, and the 00-02 only have one. Maybe Jason Snyder can chime in and comment on that.

You can't have both. It is either have the slip-on collectors and no EGR/AIR, or welded collectors with the emissions crap on there. Sorry, but maybe Edelbrock will change that in their new header that is coming out later this year

be carefull about coated headers, once rust gets past the coating, you could be in trouble... On the QTP's, which are stainless steel, surface rust can occur, but the headers will not rust out. The surface rust can be sanded off without worrying about removing a coating or effecting the headers... I think stainless steel are awesome. Also, the QTP's have the high velocity merge collectors, which are extremely good at increasing low end torque. They are great headers!

They are still in development and have not gone into production yet. I doubt they will be out this year.

From what I hear it does the job. Good luck with the aftermarket headers, later uh on I'd be interested to know what it could be.

Here is a link to the post I made when I first got them:

How much more power did they make on your car?

I made 385hp@6600/321tq@5100 with a MS3, 3.42 gears, 3800 converter, LS6 with ported TB, and the rest of the usual boltons. A:F was smooth at 12.7. I am getting rid of the ORY and catback, and going with mufflers right off the collectors with turndowns now.
