Default Re: Headers anyone???

Hell if it was a German brand header they would be charging well into $4,500 for another 25 hp increase. This is a good deal.

For a v6 all steel headers with out coatings, I say $600 - $700 is a good starting price. I'm not familiar with the cost of JETHOT coatings, that would probably run another $250 - $300?
are you kidding me, you think headers for a ls1 are around $1,799? hooker super comp long tube headers can be had for $500, and shortys or mids can be had for around $200...i'm not disputing that alot of time and effort is put into your companies headers, but when it is all said and done $1,800 is one hell of a price tag for headers.
