I'm looking to buy a set of Longtube Headers for my 09 GMC 5.3L before I install a cam in a couple months.
I'm thinking about going with the LPP longtubes. does anybody have experience with the LPP's on a NNBS 5.3L?
Any other manufacturers you guys would recommend?
I know this question may have been asked and I did search and didn't find what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
Ryan
Kooks are great headers... But pricey!
Thats what im goin with on the saab because the pacesetter and obx headers just dont fit thecsame or have same quality weld work kooks and high dollar headers do...
I'd go with the LPPs if I had the money.
Calspeed is supposedly going to come out with stainless steel LT's with 1 7/8" primaries and 3.5" collectors and 3.5" ypipe all for $500 around christmas time.
If they do, I'll own a set. I'd sell mine for a nickel.Quote:

Long thread on pt.net about it if you want to see that. They are talking Christmas time at the earliest. If they are the same quality of the ones I got from them they will be sick!
can u post the link? All i see is the one for the 99-06 with 1 3/4 primaries
They probably dont have them on there website because they arent finalized and ready to ship just yet. Like stated above somewhere around Christmas time.Quote:

I ran the LPPs on my 06 but havent heard of anyone runnin the nnbs ones. Most guys run the $400 PS or the $1200 kooks or ARHQuote:

Thanks! I know this is bad but at this point i rly dont care where they come from as long as they last and get the job done. if i dont buy them someone else will..Quote:

It says the Y is 3 1/2" Im currently running a Borla XR-1 3" muffler, would I need a 3 1/2" muffler to run this setup?
They do not fit 4x4.
they don't fit 4x4 and only the last connection pipe on the Y is 3 1/2" the rest is 3" even the collectors.
Im aware they don't fit a 4x4, not sure what caused you to think I have a 4wd. I have never owned a 4wd in my life lol
Im curious as to how loud its going to be with no cats and the stock resonator removed.
I plan on building from the Y back with a stainless pipe into the Borla muffler.
You asked how the fit was. They don't fit 4x4. I never said you had one or you didn't... just that they don't fit 4x4s.Quote:

My currents mods are only a Custom Tune, Borla XR-1 and a Volant CAI. I plan to install a custom grind cam in about 6 months. Will the 1 7/8" primaries still be a good choice to run with the stock cam for awhile? or should I go with the 1 3/4"?
