Default Stainless XS Supercomp headers!

Check these bad boys out. Got them off of ebay from powerboost29. They are 1 3/4 stainless steel. Now I hope my exhaust gets here soon so I can install everything at once.

As far as I know the guy on ebay makes them his self. They look to by almost just like Pacesetters on in stainless.

They look great! Definitely post some pictures once they are installed so we can all see how the fitment is. No offence but your low post count scares me...

I see those all the time, but don't have the nads to step up and try em out. they are like 300 bucks plus shipping or something, but his add does not say they fit the F-body perfect, nor if another y-pipe like TSP would work from them. Definately post on how they turn out!

i was going to get those....but, they never answered my emails back about anything..and i figured if they didnt fit for whatever reason, well...id be screwed...soo i went with the problem free pacesetters from Speed Inc...
also, those SS headers you got dont come race style...they only come with AIR EGR fittings, i dont have AIR sooo, hmmm...
nevertheless, they look GREAT! I hope they are problem free...let us know!

Wow...$300 for stainless LT's is insane! Let us know how easy/hard they are to install. It would be nice if they fit a TSP y-pipe. How thick of a flange do they have?

For $300? Hopefully they're actually stainless and actually fit the F-body. Good luck with them and let us know how they turn out.

Those LOOK nice, but I'll reserve judgement till I know they fit.

-1 for no race version.

Must fight urge to buy new stainless headers... Hows the build quality on those? Any chance you can get some closeups of the workmanship? The welds? Inside the collectors? If its not too much trouble. Youre a moden day f-body pioneer! And here I didnt think there was anybody left without headers.

Ok sorry for not repling sooner for all the questions. They are 321 stain less and the flange is 5/16 thick. I compared them to alot of different sets of headers on the market and they look really close to the SLP Lt. I asked a few people that have bought them from him (went to feedback at just started asking purchasers) and they all said they were ok never really said anything bad about the fitment either way.

Powerboost29 headers


Pacesetters


Dynatech Supermax


Hooker


Flowtech


Hooker Super Comps


SLP


QTP


Kooks


These are all of the headers I could find for now but check out powerboost29 headers and compare them to all of the others. The ones I have found to be the most similar to are the Hooker Super Comp 1 3/4". Hope this helps everyone out with this.
