Didn't think you could find these anymore.

Search, tons of threads on them.

If i remember right the collector is 3.5". Normally others are 3". Which could turn into issues when you try to find an exhaust to match up.

Yep...I have them...3.5" collectors...you gotta modify a ypipe to work. I used Flowmasters velocity merge adapters to go from 3.5" to 3" then modified a Mufflex ORY to fit since it had the good flowmaster merge in it. The TiTech coating on these headers is very very good compared to regular black paint. It took over a year for my headers to begin to get the tiny little rust spots on them. I was very impressed by the coating.

Ohhh ok guys thanks for the info.... I have a guy saling me some for 200 bucks. I have a (pace) 3 inch y pipe to run them with. I'm pretty sure the muffler shop can find a way to connect both.

A shop can just enlarge the y pipe to fit, no big deal.

I also run them. They fit good and are easy to install, no modification is required to the Y-pipe if you run the edelbrock one.

I have them on my car. They're ok, but they hang low, quite a bit lower than the Pacesetter LT's on my 99. You would not want to lower your car with these.

Oh ok thanks man, I don't ever plan on lowering my car. A guy local to me is giving me a deal for 200. So I'm thinking of picking them up..
