Default Long Tube Headers

I am shopping for some long tube Headers for a friend that lives in Canada, He will be here in June to put his Radix on along with head work Cam and New tranny.
He has the same Truck as mine
2004 Sierra Denali 6.0
what is a good kind, must be coated.
Thanks,
Mark

Dynatechs are the Cadillac of header systems and come with Y-pipe and cats for a hefty price. How much does he want to spend? Those are around $1400.

Dynatec coated set him back @1600.00 and bolt right in.all others will need mooding to fit up to the exsisting exhaust, Pacesetters are the lowest priced in the market and come 1 3/4 primary's w/ 3" collectors,the biggest of all and come coated but will need fabing in some cats(if wanted), and the head pipes to meet up with the exhaust.Stainless works offer a nice set up as well but @ the same as dy's and need modding to fit as well,Don't Know of any other long tube manufacture's out there.

depends what he wants to spend and what he want to fab or have fabbed. the dynatech are nice but i dont like them since they have only 2.5 inch collectors.

i only went with pacesetters because they had 3 inch collectors and i had planned to builf a completely custom exhaust. i wish i would have gone with stainless works headers though.

if he wants to fab his own stuff and doesent mind paying a bit , stainless works are very nice,

pacesetters are good for the money , but the coating isnt the best .
