Final question i'm pretty much sold on the bbk headers. How much better will the chrome be over the black pacesetters? I know stainless is the way to go living in ohio but i dont feel like spending $800 on headers.
Well the BBK Headers and Y came in yesterday at 2:00pm. I started installing them at 4:00 with a friend and had it done at 8:45 and thats with taking about a 30 minute food break and putting on a catback. The hardest part of the install was changing the spark plugs and getting to the back manifold bolts.
The headers just slid right in. I only had to take out the dipstick. They went in very well and i am very pleased.
The only negative is they send crappy header gaskets(i just used the stock metal ones) and they forgot to send the hardware to connect the y to the headers. Just went to Napa with the longtube and got the bolts i needed.

BBK headers Yea, I am kinda stuck on getting the coated pacesetters. I bought an SS grille from LMP performance this weekend & I seen them BBKs. So are they ceramic coated or chrome? Also, are the o2 bungs in the headers & what length o2 sensor wire extensions did you get? Their Y looks well built too.
