I found these stainless steel headers, but there's no info on the brand. I asked the seller who made them, but they 'aren't sure'. That would be VERY suspicious to me, if it weren't for the fact that it's an actual store selling, with 98.8% positive feedback.

P.S. If they're a good brand, Icall dibs!

Looks like they may be Pacesetters, but either way they're not that great of a header. Just by looking at them you can tell they don't have tuned primaries, they look like they may even only have a 1 5/8" or smaller primary on them, which isn't going to be enough flow for an LT1.

Your best performance/fit value is going to be Dynatech headers...trust me...

Yeah, that's what I figured. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on something good, as in relativelycheap stainless steel headers. haha.

Should I be worried about the dynatechs just being ceramic coated? I live in Michigan, and the car will be driven in snow/sand/salt. Not everyday, but essentially any day that I can make it back into my driveway (Meaning a small enough amount of ice on the roads/my driveway that I won't just spin my wheels trying to get up it. While idling.). I planned on going with Dynatech when I first started researching headers, but the coating has to be able to withstand at least three winters. So I moved onto stainless steels.

Thanks slvr.

Ceramic coating is considered to be as robust, if not more than stainless, so you should be in good shape.

Alright, thanks slvr. I just didn't want to take any chances, since when my bro got a header (yes, one, he did full exhaust on his 240sx, as in single header. haha.) it was ceramic coated, and it rusted a little in about two years.
