My StainlessWorks headers did change colors but didn't turn blue...I've seen chrome turn blue though? Maybe polished SS might turn blue?

My old dynatechs turned blue right off the head, a lot of the stainless headers Ive seen do that but to me it kinda looks cool.

I just finished my install of LPP on my truck. Went very smooth. Used new factory exhaust bolts and ss band clamps. Love the sound of headers!!!

The way the EBay ones looked I didn't like.Although, with the LPP, I had to drop my tranny crossmember, notch it and flip the piece.Then get it welded back into the crossmember.We did have 4 band clamps here at the house, so that didn't cost me anything.Aswell as trimming 2 plug wires per side down.Just the boot.Not all pipes were perfect fit; the y had alil egg shape to the one All in all nothing that bad.


I do know that need to get my spintech muffler on here, as the vforce on here doesn't sound that good in first above 3k or just into second.

Just wondering about the eBay headers, do they fit on the 2006 models too? The listings show 99-2005. So I would like to know if they fit on the 2006 before buying. Actually a friend of mine is looking at them, as am I. And will you need a tune for cat delete, or do the canisters on there work as a suitable reacement?
