Header is cracked! Looking for stock replacement or LT's

Just this past weekend I cracked my passenger side header/exhaust manifold. I'm looking for someone that might have a used one they would be willing to sell if they changed their stock ones out.

Does anyone know of a set of long tubes for sale?

Does the motor have to be pulled to install LT's or replace the stock one?

As always any info would be very helpful.

Thanks Fellas!

for finding headers for you.

You don't need to drop the motor for LT header install.

I hope you can find LT's for cheap so you can have more power.

Yes and replace the mounts that's why it broke in the first place.

Well that fell through cause his wife threw away his old parts thinking he didn't need them. I'm back on the market. Someone said you don't have to drop the motor to do long tubes, is that correct? I might justify buying a set if that will save me the labor on pulling the motor. Someone said Kleeman for $1000? What brand makes the most power? I know a guy selling his ET's on here for $1300. Good deal?

LOL the stock headers are such a POS even the wife threw them out. I don't blame her.

Not sure, what the gains are compared to the other LT's on the market. I heard the MBH tri y make more power then 4-1 EC LT's. Wonder if there are any dyno graphs or first hand experience with both headers.

Kleemans are the cheapest, but still make good power. MBH and ARH are nice USA made longtubes and will make more power than the Kleeman but cost $2500-$3000 with an X pipe, it's up to you if that's worth the $$. Ive got a few sets of stock manifolds,you're welcome to a pair just PM me an address.

Tried to PM you but your inbox is full. I still have the EC long tubes for $1300 and a brand new set of Kleeman mid lengths for $950 I just bought these two weeks ago from Kleeman directly for $1050 shipped.
