Look to the right column and click LS1tech.com...there you'll see a bunch of sponsors sites on the right column. Arizona Speed and Machine,Texas Speed and Performance are a couple. You can do a search on the topic,too.

Speed eng has some long tubes for cheap, that is the route to go, and plug changes takes me 20 min for all.

I've got ceramic pacesetters from texas speed. They have the best deal I could find. $375. No problems with changing plugs.

pacesetters are fairly cheap and a damn good longtube. The plug changes are a breeze as long as you use some kind of lubricant on the plug threads. I used a little antiseize lube that i bought in a little package from the Zone. I think it took me 3 hours to do it. It is a fun drive to the muffler shop with straight headers!!
