Just wait on the gp, it is going to happen(I think), I need headers as bad as anyone...

I sent him and email and asked him if he would be interested in offering them as a GP after they come out. I am awaiting a reply. I saw the F body headers they had on LS1Tech had the merge collector and the spike in the collector. From what I have read it really helps with low end torque. I also asked if that would be available on the trucks. Maybe we can get some AWESOME headers, american made, at a really good price

Yah I talked to him also, they look like really nice headers, but in my case the primes are to small, so who knows when they will make a set with bigger ones... It is like I find headers that I want, the y pipes are to small. I find a nice set with 3 inch merge collectors, the primes are to small, the one that works is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ lmao

I know that is what sucks, headers for the trucks kind of suck. I would love to have some nice REALLY nice headers but I am not spending more than 1k

Looks like a nice header for mild 4.8's and 5.3's...even bolt on only 6.0's could benefit from the 1 5/8" primaries I believe.

In fact I sold my set for $385, the buyer got the deal of the century. Fitment issues are with the 99s, 2000s. Frame variances on more or less.
I was under the impression that they fit or didn't fit, it was really a crap shoot on all models

The OBX fit so well that I can't see any way you would have fitment, even if there are variances in production. I had the on an 03 1500HD 2wd and they were not even close to hitting anything! Just 2 plug wires to worry about. I tie wraped an insulated wire to the wires and shaped them how I wanted, problem solved and totally discrete.
