[Featherburner]

[unstable bob gable]

Those headers are missing a pipe!
And speaking of pipes...:mrgreen:

[ar0ck]

And speaking of pipes...:mrgreen:

Someone must be smoking one if thats those shiny objects are keeping them from putting there stupid motor back in.

[maroman88]

why are they in the hatch of a vette??? lol

[DaSkinnyGuy]

Helps the vette go faster,:nod: Wish I could have had these for my 3.1L when I put headers on.

[Mike]

the guy that makes them has a c5, he probably took the pics on the way home from the coaters

No coating on them, they are stainless.

[Blacdout96]

Kasey's badass V6 FTW!!! I cant wait to see and hear this thing run

[GP99GT]

would you just put the damn thing back together already? i dont think you really need longtubes

[Knipps]

what he said...

even if you do get them you can just do this all over again..
but then again you don't have to drive yours all winter :evil:

[Savage_Messiah]

want the torque.

i might say screw it and run the thing till they're out... in which case i just gotta put the engine verter and trans together and roll it all in, then tune it and break in the motor.

[bubba428]

what cam did you end up going with?

[GP99GT]

longtubes would probably give you less torque but a higher peak HP...more top end

honestly i dont think your v6 is going to be pushing enough air to warrant those, unless youre doing something i dont know about

[Blacdout96]

Oh are you waiting for the aluminum heads to come out Kasey? Im kinda waiting myself to see how they turn out, and they keep pushing the date for them, you think by now they'd be finished lol.

[Savage_Messiah]

what cam did you end up going with?

stock

[GP99GT]

stock

:lol:

[bubba428]

what are you doing to it then?

[Blacdout96]

stock

:lol: yeah he just took the whole engine out just to put LT's on it, nothing else......lol

[Tru2Chevy]

It's just a fresh longblock with headers....should be a nice little improvement over the 180k+ mile motor that got pulled out.

- Justin

[Savage_Messiah]

what are you doing to it then?

Just a refresh, bearings rings, etc... what's the bother putting in the 194k mile engine with the new trans?

-304 SS 16 gauge construction
-polished
-1.5" primaries
-2.5" collectors
-TIG Welded
Does not have provisions for EGR.

These headers are being manufactured in batches of 10 or more for us, so to be able to get the first batch going, we need to get at least 10 people to commit to purchase before we can proceed with the order.

Upon order, it takes 12 weeks for delivery of the product to us, expect another 1-2 weeks for it to make it to your hands, via UPS, pending payment.

Prices are as follows for this batch:

-Headers only: $725.00. SHIPPED
-Headers with Y pipe: $850.00. SHIPPED

We will ask for a $225.00 deposit to secure your spot on the list upon order.
If you decide to back out after the order has been put in, we will refund your deposit minus $50 for stocking fee.

When we recieve the shipment, we will contact you to request the remaining payment be made. Upon reciept your order will ship.


If i'm reading right, then after deposit one whould only need to save 52.09 a week for 12 weeks and by the time the headers are made and FFF gets them theres the rest of the payment. That makes em pretty affordable.

[Tru2Chevy]

Will they be offering them with larger primaries as well? I can imagine that 1.5" will choke some of the head/cam cars a bit.

Also, seeing as how it'll be at least 4 months till you can possibly get them, I would get that motor back in the car ASAP, and worry about swapping headers when you get the LTs.

- Justin

[GP99GT]

1.5"?! wtf

[Tru2Chevy]

1.5"?! wtf

1.5" is ok for the bolt-on guys (although 1 5/8" would be better)....there is approximately the same amount of cylinder volume on a 3.8 as a 305. Anyone who is into more serious mods would want larger primaries for sure though.
