On a stock K member, you may need to grind/cut around the passenger side primary.. it may hit.

Also, the steering column will need to be slid over, which is a simple matter of loosing the bolts, sliding it over, and re tighten. For 310 shipped, you cannot beat these headers IMO.

As far as being "too big" for your application, I ran the same time I did with pacesetters.. so not sure how I am losing HP/Tq there...

I run my wires under the headers with no issue and spark plug access is much better that the pacesetters. The header flanges are 1/2 inch and the end holes are slotted so it makes install a breeze. The collectors are actually welded by someone that isn't blind and there is no coating to fall off after a year of driving. If you take the time to work over your engine harness, you will not need 02 extensions anymore either.

The one downside I have found is the Y pipe supplied is garbage, I think cause they use the same one for LT1/LS1 setups, but small price to pay. I got my headers from AP1AP2, and am very pleased with them.

Alot of people said that I would get what I paid for. Well I got a really good deal and the car runs like a champ for being a 15 yr old stock LT1 with a 3200 stall ,coil, Ram Air, and catback.. If I had to do it all over again I would buy another Revmaxx converter but probably get a 3600 this time around..

I saw these stalls and was looking into them but, couldn't really find much on them. I know there big in the diesel world and all of ls1 tech is on yank's balls so all you hear is get a yank be done. You like the stall?, any issues so far? I realize we have different motors but just wanted to get some feedback on the design, install, how its holding up.
Sorry for the hijack i've been looking for someone using a rev max for awhile.

yeah im definatly getting a k member already and the engines out so moving the column shouldn't be a difficult task

LTb1ow 11-14-2010 10:33 PM

I can get a few pics of clearance areas if you want me to.

ib4200 11-14-2010 11:17 PM

Any stainless steel long tube type header you find on eBay are LPPs.

I managed to get my hands on the Gen 1 LPPs and they fit with no problems whatsoever.

I am gonna disagree on that one, I think Josh (jerzlt1) bought a set and they were not 1 7/8 primaries, I think they were smaller than pacesetters. I do not remember the exact vendor he bought his from though at the moment.

The guy who started LPP sold the jig and everything with it. They are all made on the same jig, just some with different tubing sizes. They all come from the same place.

That's what I meant. :)

if i'm not mistaken, the ones that SAC makes for the GTP are knock-off SLP's {i had gtps since 05, until just 2 weeks ago}. The only problem's i've heard about them are the crossovers not fitting right over the trans. same problems as the pacesetters {on the gtp, they aren't the best}
