LT's and tune? (yes I searched first)
#16
Guys long tube headers are cheap now. A little over $500 shipped will get you either OBX stainless long tubes(that are chromed) or Ceramic Coated Mild Steal Pace Setters. Both kits will come with a Y-pipe. Do the install in your garage/driveway over the weekend. On Monday take your truck to a muffer shop and have him weld in some highflows, and better yet have him true dual the exhaust..

Yeah I agree though, try high flows first because eventually if you do.. do headers then 9times out of 10 afterwards your probably going to want some high flowing cats..
-Question, the Pacesetter LTs are offered pretty cheap for the black painted ones..VS the ArmourCoated ones.. would it be worth spending the extra money for the ArmourCoated ones would the black ones look like crap after about 3 years? Or is there a great paint coating to put on the black ones for long lasting durable look?

Excerpt from above:
"No tuning changes are required from using these (sic: Dynatech) longtube headers in 99% of the trucks we have installed them on, unlike some other longtubes (e.g Pacesetter)
There is no better quality header than Dynatech - forget trying to go the cheap route with Pacesetter, etc., it's just not worth it when you can get aircraft-grade T304 S/S quality like this that will last a lifetime without cracking, etc. It's just not worth saving a few dollars at time of purchase - if you are going to install headers, do it right - do it ONCE - with Dynatech, just like we do in our own vehicles here at Troyer Performance."

on your question, yes you can sand down the paint and powdercoat or some better quality high temp paint which will last longer but not too long. (powdercoat is best) honestly, take it from someone who bought the painted, GO ceramic, spend the extra.
