Default Good headers for 6.0 under $500.00?

I bought Sprayedd99's Radix and I am wondering if there are any good long tube headers under 500.00 for a daily driver with some towing? My truck will probably never see the drag strip, so I am not sure if I need long tubes or not? My truck is a 2007 Classic Sierra Denali 1500 with the LQ9 6.0L.

shorty's aren't worth the time IMO, I'm running Gibson shorties and I'd gladly sell them if I had a set of stock manifolds to put back on.

You can get Pacesetters in ceramic for that price range, a little more and you'll also have the off road y-pipe, making it a bolt in application

I looked on pacesetters website and didn't see anything. Are Pacesetters a decent header?

Pacesetter is probably on 98.5% of everyone's truck! Theyre good and worth it.

Are the pacesetters bolt on? I would prefer a bolt on kit over a welded kit. Just makes things easier for me.

they're a bolt on mod, but they're better if you have them welded with flanges in case you have to get any transmission work done

I'm one of the few that doesn't, but they are a good header and if I was buying new that is what I would have gone with.

i have an 06 SSS and i got my Pacesetter LT's for about 310 on Ebay thats shipping n handling included. those will fit on ur's it's the same engine, theres nothing different under the hood between ur's and mine. but they are definately worth it but since they are longtubes it's a bitch to take off the exhaust, thats wat took me the longest to do.... good luck with it tho

P.S. both ur trucks look sick

just look them up on Texas Speed and Performance's site (sponsor on right ->)
for your '07 classic style Denali you'll need the same part that fits all the 99-06 trucks 4wd

they are only a bolt on with the ORY
