What color should I go with do get the "ceramic coated" or nicest, stainless look? VHT Flame proof is the paint I will be using, It's either between Flat silver, Flat aluminum, or Cast Iron.

The flat silver looks nice. Which one will give the nicest finish, closest to coated or stainless?

it's going to end up coming off anyway, just get it ceramic clear.

Just FYI, I cant post the link due to non-sponsor, but if you search google shopping for 'LT1 headers', theres a store out there that still has the ebay stainless headers for $340 shipped w/ y-pipe

Yeah, OBX SS ebay headers I hear are good, little better than the pacesetters for about the same price. IDK about the clearancing tho and if that affects performance, but I did notice it says they have 3.5 inch collector which is awkward to me.
Any info on these would be good tho considering i am in the market for LT's right now also.

I also ignored the OBX due to the 3.5" collector. Seriously why do that when almost all the ypipes I have seen are 3"? I'm sure not going to redo my ypipe just to fit them. I'm really hoping the LPP info is true and another run of them will be made next year.

Do the headers leak? No, not at all. I even used the "crappy" gasket that the came with. No leaking problems at all. Speed Daddys on a 96 z28 m6.

For those who don't know, Speed Daddy's headers ARE the AP1AP2 headers. They are just sold under a different vendor and they are cheaper through speed daddy!
