Default Looking for some LT's

Don't know if its just me or what but the parts classifieds section is messed up so I figured I would just post in the LT1 section that I am looking to buy some long tubes in about two weeks. I prefer coated and must have o2 bungs on the collectors. Reply with what you have.

It's not just you, classifieds turned to **** ages ago when they tried to "update" it. Now its a mess of LS, LT, and who knows what else all mixed together .

I know one member on here has a couple sets for sale. ddr698 is his user id. I've bought several things from him before and he's nice to deal with.
OBX headers have gotten some great reviews from everyone on here too. I haven't tried them myself.
IF you can find a set, TPIS longtubes have the best clearance for changing plugs compared to all the rest I've seen. I can change all my plugs from the top if I remove my alternator first.

Hooker & Jet Hot look like they would be almost as good for plug clearance too.

I think he means that the quality of coating on Pacesetters sucks. I'm not saying it does or doesn't....just that is what I took it to mean.

If you want them to look pretty under the hood, get the coated. Mine are 4 years old on a daily driver, in all weather, and under the hood they look great...under the car...not so much.

the coating on the pacesetters does suck, mine have only been on a year.... With that being said though, the fit was great no trimming of steering shaft, i can change all my plugs from uptop without removing my altenator... Although some do get sketchy and are a pain to do i have done them a couple times though and with a little bit of deterimination it gets done.
