Ordered some LS6 springs, 57$. Was going to use a set of my normal 105$ singles but nothing wrong with saving 50$.

The hotcam is very promising looking as far as what I want. Wish I was firing it up now.

Well, so far, I'll say that I'm glad I have not been told my header selection is junk, lol.

There's nothing wrong with those headers at all. I like the chinese headers better than pacesetters because of the thicker gauge steel. But I thoroughly despise slip joints though.

You used the slip joints before? Can always have the pipe modded for lap joints and clamps. I've never had issues with those.

China, they all probably come from the same place. They look like copies of pacesetters

As long as they copy something that fits. Lol

I have never had stainless Chinese headers, first time for everything.
