OBX Headers (just recieved)
For such a "legacy platform" things sure to create a lot of buz and sales when someone releases decently priced LT1 headers.
Good luck to everyone with their headers. I have Speed Daddy LPP's and love them.

I too would like to see these installed. I'm getting close to the end of my 355 H/C/I build and was planning on reusing my old Jet-Hot long tubes that I've been using since 03 because I know they fit and have the ground clearance I need. I'm lowered on Strano's and can't have the headers be any lower than what I've currently got.
I'd buy these today if I knew I could maintain ground clearance.

Yeah, it would be nice to see an actual install. All I am getting right now is that 'they fit between the sofa and La-Z-Boy without modification'. 
It would be a shame if everyone rushed and bought these and the fitment is not so good.

I was installing my LPP's withinn minutes of opening the box. These guys need to rethink their priorities.

That's a very long sentence.................and when you spell ****** be sure to use an apostrophe (******') so we'll know that you meant to spell it that way.

What makes me laugh are the "I CAN'T WAIT FOR THEM TO GET HERE!" posts. Once they get there, snap some pics, put them back in the box and wait. The suspense would be killing me and I would install them first chance I got.
We know the fit in the box at least

I had to wait 2 days before I could install my LTs when I got them, 2...I almost called out of work to install them bahaha
Ok so I mocked mine up today. They seem to fit well, only issues: be prepared to use a open end wrench for all the bolts. The bolts sit very tight to the primary's. On my passenger side, the second bolt in from the front wouldn't go in, the primary bent it too soon/sharp.

Drivers side k member from rear:
Drivers side, bolt closest to firewall:

Passenger side second bolt in from front:
Looks like a fabbed y pipe would be a pain
Also, these are stock bolts. I'm unsure what I'll end up going with. I didn't have the gaskets installed and the motor is out so that's why the steering shaft isn't hooked up (obviously)
Sorry for the crap cell pics. Hope it helps!

Those are what I used on my LPP's. Also, from what I recall, a lot of people complained of Kook's clearance on the oil filter. They had to remove the oil cooler adapter etc just to get it to fit.
