SLP Headers

**Bigsword4** · 02-27-2007, 03:55 PM

Are these worth the money? They cost 1200 with the y-pipe and high flow cats.
I want to be able to pass emissions in NC so I want cats but I also want something that is going to last(stainless). So is there a better setup for cheaper or is this the best way to go?

SLP headers = 3x too much.
The clearance simply sucks. They don't make anything near the SLP power claims.

That thread will let you know all about SLP.

I believe JetHots are hookers with a coating.

I would go with the JetHots.

Good headers though.

sweet thanx for the input.

I figured they weren't worth it. Any suggestions, Ive heard good things about kooks. How about Edlbrock?

Pacesetters are a great budget longtube.
JetHots as well.

Too big on a stock motor.
Loose low end power with them.

What type of inspection do they do in NC? LT's I don't believe will pass a visual inspection in most states.

MACs are great headers, but they are a mid-length...not a long-tube. I installed my MACs in a single-car garage on ramps...no problem. The fit was great, the clearance was great and the power was very good. Do NOT use their cats! I have since moved on to coated Hookers/Jet-hots...

getting a shot at buying full borla exhaust off a buddys uncles wrecked ws6. he bought it to transplant the motor and trans into a nova. think borla midtubes are worth it??? they are uncoated. just not sure about mid tubes...

**greatwhiteZ28** · 04-03-2007, 12:07 PM

if threr a good price why not. but if close to any thing over 500 buy LT
