Default Made up my mind on Headers

Ok so i decided, and made up my mind. I am going with the Pacesetter long tubes with ORY. Just have a few questions,

1. Does it come with gaskets and everything needed to install? If not which do you guys recommend

2. Should i go with the armor coat or the regular one?

3. What kind of gains are you guys seeing with LT's?

It's for my daily driver, but i have florida plates so no smog for me. I decided to go with those because for the price (have a cam kit I'm saving up for) and it seems everyone on here has no complains, except for installation. Thanks guys.

1. Mine came with gaskets and 02 extensions
2. By them painted and send them off to get coated, it's the only way you'll get a coating that lasts.
3. Not sure

Awesome choice man !!!

1.) It comes with paper gaskets which are crap, reuse the stock manifold gaskets on the headers and you'll be better off (They are reusable)

2.) Armor Coat, it will help the keep the engine temp (Under the hood) down. It will also help the headers last longer.

3.) Most people see around 20HP at the wheels after you tune for the headers.

Good luck bud and congratz on your headers
