Default Pacesetters & ORY

I have a set of Pacesetters (coated) and an ORY (aluminized) that are NEW with all factory-shipped hardware. This is the complete set-up minus the box (wife used for garbage). $525 plus the actual shipping cost. To save your time and mine, the price is not negotiable.

I guess because I'm new, I can't post in the classifieds section.

For those of you who need a reference, I'm listed in eBay as mcdaniel585. Check my feedback there.

haha, you think posting that in here makes it "right"? There's a reason you aren't able to sell yet, read the rules.

And just FYI, I bought my pacesetters and ORY from a sponsor for $519 SHIPPED to my door

otherwise, welcome to the site.

Good luck, Try selling on ebay. Maybe they dont know about our sponsors! But seriously the price is a tad high. Howcome you have two sets? Your sig shows a set installed on your truck. Are these the ones for sale?

After the 6.0 swap, I had planned to put them on and was still toying with the thought as late as my enrollment on this board but was having serious issues with the cat placement. Also, our local inspection requires the cats, which I found out after I had received the ORY pipe from backorder.

I had purchased two 3" high-flow cats and their location would appear to be (by rough measurement) about 10" further downstream which would put them over the crossmember. Not a very sanitary (or acceptable to me) solution. Converter light-off may also have been an issue (it was on my long tube Vette several years ago).

Anyhow, I saw a truck with ASM headers that placed the converters in a location more suitable for fabrication of the rest of the exhaust back to the mufflers. Had I not already purchased the converters, I would probably went with the SS Dynatechs and had them coated.

So the ASMs are on the way, and hopefully by next weekend, they'll be installed.

Right now, the engine seems relatively happy with the stock manifolds and the rest of the exhaust. There's some minor surging that I attribute to the PCM being tuned for the headers. The short-trip mileage has been really good - mid 17s (driving by the shift light), and not that much different from the 4.8, which I drove harder. I expect a downhill turn once the headers are on and I start to pin it some.

To answer your question, the headers have never been on the truck. My price is probably high but that is less than I paid for them, due mostly to the shipping costs to get them out here.

I guess that I'll just put them aside for one of my future projects (my '77 Monza Spyder or my '47 Olds - L98 or maybe the 4.8?)
