Including if i remember correctly every other set on your site I think these are the only ones that got this odd ball bend setup. And yes I ask for custom stuff. Because everything I have ever built has never been normal kinda like these headers.

Ed- i understand where you are coming from, but it is not as simple as just deleting a bend. The header would completely change. Without a truck here we wouldn't know where to put the collector so it clears everything as well as other obsticles. Sorry i am just trying to show you from a manufacturers standpoint how difficult it actually is to do what you are requesting. Thanks.

Still waiting to hear back from you as to whether or not you want to try them on my truck (2001) and I'll dyno them vs my Jba's.
Thanks,
Doc

That sounds awesome!...cant wait to finish my truck now....I have pretty much the same exhaust set up SW 1"7/8 long tubes, 3" sweet thunder chambered mufflers, magnaflow x pipe, and no cats. Do you still have cats on your truck? any more pics of your truck or the exhaust?

If you look up in the post there is a video of a lifted Avalanche with them on it. It depends on the lift kit though if you have clearance issues or not.
