SLP longtubes, they fit without rubbing or clanging around, but do cost an inch or so ground clearance. And they are coated also. Mine costed 'bout $850.00 I believe. Just my 2 cents.

i still don't understand the llama reference. i mean, i get that it's good to rag on people for not reading stickies and i understand that a forum could very well have a mascot...but why a llama? why not a goat or an elephant? i mean first off, that's not even a llama. this is clearly a llama:



and a simple search will net you that pacesetters are the way to go in your situation. however, i would also look into edelbrocks. they're a little more money, but american made edelbrocks are much better quality-wise than mexican made pacesetters.

Edelbrock. Just installed mine, and they fit awesome, Y pipe is one of the best out there for fitment, size, and has a very nice merge(which you will rarely find on a y for budget headers). They come with everything needed, gaskets, bolts, 02 extensions...any Air/EGR **** if you choose that. I chose the version with slip fit collectors, then had them welded on. I cannot comment on the coating/paint on the headers too much since they haven't been on long, but it held up well to scratches and things of that nature...and my when the collectors were welded on it didn't burn off.

How much budget are we talkin'? I have coated Hookers/Y-pipe that have been pretty good, but you could also try to score some used MACs for cheap.

Ooops! Saw that you are looking for LTs, so scratch the MAC idea... I have heard plenty of good stuff from Pacesetter if you are on a budget...
