which headers for my Z?
which headers for my Z? 02 Z06 getting headers within the next week or two. Can you guys give me some ideas and price ranges and quality. On my SS, I had Kooks and they were very good.
I don't think that they are really all that bad. I know that the going rate for install on a C5 is about $300. I think that you can do it relatively easily....could be a PITA too...lol
Definitely get the Kooks.
My friend got a pair for his C5 and we tried putting them in oursleves. Unbolted a lot of things, including the motor mounts and couldn't get them in for the life of us. None of us had ever put headers on a car and we didn't have a lift or anything so unless you know what you're doing I would say to get them installed somewhere.

Ive done about 10 sets of headers but none on a vette, heard they are a BITCH to put in the air without a lift. I was most likely going with kooks again. I had no cats last time, is there a big difference in hp between cats and no cats? sound wise?

THe ones we did on our Z06 were tough, we did get them in though. On the floor without a rack. Cant really see how a rack would make it any easier besides not laying on the floor. We never put the cats back on it after the headers, so i cant tell you about a difference. We did have the stock catback on our x pipe for a while and it was still very quiet. They are the best as far as i'm concerned, thats why they cost what they do.
