I agree with Moddo, then install od Pacesetters is pretty straight foreward. They pretty much fall right in place. I had problems because I got a 4X4 and they sent me 2WD headers.

The metal lines are a little farther away then I thought. I think I am ok. As far as metal vs steel, the steel is helping since it disipates heat acting like a single pass cooler the whole way from the tranny to the radiator up front then back again, rubber wont disipate heat as well.

I don't need headers to be pretty like the Dynatechs. But if I was going to spend $1,000, I sure woulden't blow my whole load on a set of headers. I'd get a cheap set of LT's and a nice cam and a tune.

I did not have to alter my truck or my headers in any way. (EDIT: pushed tranny cooler lines 1/2" to the side by hand)
They went in easily and I would wager that the performance is NOT noticeably different than dynatechs.
They may even perform better than dynatechs because bare stainless sheds heat quickly.
Anyway, this is about Pacesetter Header Fitment, not who's headers are prettier.
The first sets of PS LTs had some fitment issues, and they are resolved as far as I have heard lately.
Are they the best? no
Do they fit? yes
