Default Who has LPP headers?

Ok so I keep flip flopping between what longtube headers i wanna get
would really like to do LPPs but a couple things keep bugging me
I keep hearing they dont always fit right or you gotta bang them up a bit plus other things
have any of you LPP users come across any problems?

Headers fit fine on mine, their close in spots but no rubbing from what I can tell. The slip fits on the Y pipe are a pain in the *** tho.

I've got them, they slid in without issue, no banging or bending required for me. Until I swapped in the 80e, then the Y-pipe needed to be massaged.

I'm with him.Everything went in without a problem for me....except for the damn Y pipe where it slips going from the drivers side to the passenger side...other than that no probs.Haven't even had to re-torque the header bolts.

I ended up dropping the trans cross member and beating the hell out of it with a sledge.

I just dropped the trans xmember, put the Y together on the ground and slid it onto the collectors as one piece... an extra set of hands, some wiggling and a lift are good to have at this step, lol.
