Plenty of people run them nothing wrong with them. My buddy bought a set and we made the y pipe and ended up looking pretty good. I do know it was cheaper for him to buy the pipe and we bend it rather than buying the y pipe made for the headers. So a good exhaust shop should be able to make one for you. Will be cheaper for a shop to make one I dont know.

Cant go wrong with pacesetters. You can find some used on here for a good price. I picked some up on here for 155 shipped last month...

I have personally installed 3 sets of LT1 pacesetters and 1 set of LS1 pacesetters and all fit great. As far as budget headers do I wouldn't look anywhere besides pacesetter. Which is odd because pacesetter gets a terrible rep around the tuner world.

That's a good price especially if they are coated. Ive ran pacesetters before and liked them but I'm going with stainless next time since they are do cheap now.
