Default Which Long Tubes fit the best?

I hooker and pacesetters seem to be proven but Im interested in the stainless obx headers for a 6L. That way its easy to run true duals.

Do they fit? My truck is an '05 gmc sierra rclb. 2wd

The OBX headers are based on the old Dynatech design. Therefore they have the goofy up and over primary tube on the driver side that makes routing and protecting your spark plug wires a chore. Other than that, and the crazy rate of heat exchange of stainless steel (or so I've read), they seem to be decent headers for the money.

yeah, I hate that goofy bend. I thought stainless insulates better than the coatings used.

I have Dynas on my truck and gezz those things get hot. Ive been looking into getting them jet coated. Stainless will last longer but thats about it.

My Arizona speed & marine headers went on fairly easy the drivers side was a piece of cake passenger side was a lil more difficult.
