Who has pacesetter headers with y-pipe?
#21
I have poly mounts too.
No rubbing of the primaries with the steering shaft.
The passenger side collector is resting against the transmission bell housing so I had to cut off a bit to clear it.
Driver side of the Y pipe would not go in until I banged the body a bit and it slid right on without any rubbing.
All in all, I'm a happy customer.

well i made a promise to pacesetter and feel i need to uphold it....
have a set of pacesetters on my car currently but would not recommend to anyone to buy these headers EVER! install them in december of 08. had nothing but fitment issues getting them into the car. the steering did not hit on mine, but seems to be a major issue for others. Y pipe hit brace on floor pan and the pieces of the Y didnt line up for crap! ended up having to spend over 120 dollars on labor with an exhaust shop to make it fit correctly. then 3 months down the road the drivers side emission port welds let go and allow the whole port to blow off the header. called pace setter and they wanted me to take it off the car, send it in, and they would look at it and determine then if they would give me any sort of partial credit toward a new drivers side header. well since my car is my DD and also my only vehicle i explain to them that this will not work. told how lousy the fitment was and about all the money i have already spent trying to use their product. So out of the goodness of their hearts they offered me another route to take to get their junk fixed. they wanted me to buy a new set of headers, then mail them back the old ones and they would then determine if the fault of fitment was mine or theirs, and decide if they would credit me or not. so i promised them that i would make sure everyone on tech knows of their customer service and how well they stand behind their product, and then promised them also that the next set of headers i buy will come from kooks and not their company. i have kept my word as i have a set of kooks going on before the end of june feeding into a mufflex 4" catback. also about 4 months after my phone call to pacesetter,the EGR port on the back passenger side of the right header blows off yet again to lousy welding. this time i had to yank the whole header out, take it to the exhaust shop to get welded up and then reinstall it. needless to say i didnt even bother calling pacesetter back. am moving on. and i realize that not everyone can afford to pay what kooks wants for headers... but had i bought a second set of pacesetters id be in the ballpark of kooks anyway. and there are other companies out there such as LPP who make a far superior product to pacesetter and really at a nominal increase in price. if there is anyway you can return the pacesetters and get some LPPs, i STRONGLY urge you to do so. hate to see yet another consumer suffer the pains i have due to a substandard company like pacesetter. and if they are a sponsor on here, oh well! the truth is the truth and i do not at all feel guilty about warning others of their poor quality.

We have installed 3 sets of Pacesetters at our shop, two LS1 cars and one LT1 car. All three sets we felt fit great, no fighting to get them in place and no rubbing at all. The LT1 car we used the EGR headers and the EGR mounts were a pain since they didn't line up up but other than that they were fine.
