Default LPP LT1 headers and Y now on SALE
Ok guys all the feedback I got before I decided to make these headers was very positive.
Everyone said you will sell tons of them.
Well I had close to 50 people on the reserve list but only 11 bought them and since then I've only sold 3 sets.

So I'm dropping the price to get rid of the rest so I can concentrate on other projects.

The headers and Y are now $550 with Free shipping to the continental US.

How much do they weigh? You might be getting close to a ton sold.

It sure seems like you spent a lot of time on them to be throwing in the towel so soon. I would give it some time, but I'm also not in your position.

Whats the price for just the headers? New motors going in soon, could use a new set of LT's (old ones look a bit beat up).

do these have provisions for EGR/AIR/O2 or no? I have to get the car emmisions tested with a wand because of the year. I have to be able to pass emissions.

Do you plan on continuing to make these at later dates or is this going to be the only batch produced? How much for just a set of headers?

Sorry to say, but that's the way the LTx world is. People want the aftermarket to support the LTx platform but don't support the aftermarket when it comes out. I'm afraid the same thing will happen with the other vendor and the HSR manifold they are working on. Everyone says it's the next best thing, but I bet he only sells very few. When it comes down to it people want the next best thing but aren't willing to pay for it.

I'm hoping that you still keep the headers in a limited production capacity to support those who do actually do want a pair later on down the road.
