Default Crazy looking Headers

Trying to see if anyone out there can help me? Im looking for a crazy looking header where the pipes go around each other like a shorty equal length. Putting them on a show car and trying to catch some eyes! Pics and names will help me alot thanks!!! I have done a search but having a hard time.

most pipes are probably straight forward, made for power and not so much worried about bending the pipes so much, straighter pipes is smoother flow. you will have better luck having a shop make some custom headers or do 'em yourself. Doesn't summit have kits for this?

I think qtp are the best looking mass produced header. Not really all that crazy looking, but they look good, and bling.

1 off in stainless will cost a ton, good luck.

I don't know about LS1 but the LT1 has shorty headers by dynomax that go up and then back down. It looks kinda like an octopus. A guy in the LT1 section just removed his.

The dynatechs look great. I've got a set and even after a couple of years they are in great shape.

Most equal length headers will look fun and twisted. Just a tidbit of info.

QTP's are equal length, but they're not twisted by any means.

I vote for a set of QTP's. They're BY FAR the best looking mass produced header. Just call QTP to make sure you get a set with badges and without a weld in the primary or they won't look so bling.




Those are mine. Bling indeed.

This is the first time I've ever heard of headers as an appearance mod. Granted, it's nice to have them polished or coated as opposed to rusty and ugly, but I've never heard people complain about the design not being 'crazy looking'.

Now I've heard it all.
