this is true but... they are 304 not 321 and if you want a stainless ory it's $800 total not $650 and i doubt any of it is polished.

so if you can wait your paying $150 less for a better product. i'm just not sure i can hold out any longer.

Definitely taking awhile.

They should have made the LS1 headers first rather than the LT1 headers.
There would probably be more buyers.

Very interested to see them when they come out.

I know they are 304, and yes 321 is better, but I felt like 321 was overkill anyway. Now if the other brand used 409 instead of 304 I would completely agree with you, but the difference between 304 and 321 is something I think many people can get by without. Also, the other brand includes stuff that LPP does not, so I felt is was a trade off and that they were of equal value when it came to figuring out which was a better deal. Onto the y-pipe, if your like me and wanted to stay as street legal as possible, your in the market for a catted y-pipe, not an ORY. The only catted y out there that is polished is maybe the one made by QTP for $500, so i feel your comparison is a little unfair but hey, this is a public forum and everyone has a right to their opinion.

On a side note: I do not intend to bash LPP and think it's great what the guy is doing for the LS1 community, he is offering a great product at a great price. The only reason I went with the other headers was because summer was on it's way and the car would start getting used a lot more.
