I had SLP LT's and they made good power but when I seen back to back dyno test vs. Kooks I was sold on a set of kooks. My SLP's are collecting dust in the corner till I figure out if I'm gonna sell them or save them for another build

Don't forget my LS6 intake/SLP LT to FAST90/QTP HVMC swap which gained 35rwhp!

Edelbrock LT's also use a merge collector as well. Also from the latest fitment threads about QTP's headers, I think I would stay away from them.

That would be me and Mine look like ****. They have surface rust all over them and it just looks like ***. They looked so nice when I put them in and now......I am thinking about changing them out but I would only do it if I knew for sure it would make more power. I have seen reports here where someone switched to Kooks and gained power, and also seen the same swap and LOST power.

DJ- All QTP headers now have the high velocity merge collectors at the standard price. That would be my choice considering the price is similar to Kooks.

Hooker makes a nice header. It's available in bright polished stainless and my un-coated Hookers (for the time being) have made some pretty good power and you know how they tuck... a lil' too close.
