$2,230 a set.

Ouch! :willy:

$2230 isnt all that bad...

Too bad they are equal length... it just makes them "peaky".

Nice lookin tube though... that is for sure.

YIKESSSS!!!
Quality looks good though.:thumbsup:

Those are some nice ass headers :yes:

They look nice!
What I love about the LS motors is the placement of the header bolts...mine are a bitch with the 1 7/8" tubes on a gen 2 SBC!

Joni,

If you already have the engine frame mounts from DSE, they have to go back for the pipes to fit correctly. Kyle told me the modified frame mounts move the engine 1 inch back and then the pipes will fit well. I should have a set next week, will post some pics when I recieve them.

2K for headers is crazy, even if they are SS. just my Humble opinion AND I am cheap.... What the diff between these and the ATS ones which are prices similar.

These expensive extras is what turns me off about the LS platform which in my opinion is a Superior Platform to Gen 1. The extras cost so much$$$$$

I wouldn't say they are priced similar. The ATS is a true custom made road race header and costs 3k. Thats not 2k(DSE). Custom built pipes are in the 1200 to 1500 range in mild steel, add high quality stainless/o2 bungs/v band hardware you quickly surpass 2k. My Dan Lemons big block chevy pipes were over a grand in mild steel.

To get this stuff to fit your custom chassis is the hard part, Its pretty expensive, I see your point to a certain degree. But the additional costs of the fuel injection and associated electronics, serpentine accessory systems, and custom made pipes can all add up the same on a gen 1 as well. I have a full FAST system on my sb and it cost a bloody fortune to set up. If you do a vintage air frontrunner sysem on a sb its gonna be bucks.

Tell you what I just picked up a complete serp system from gm performance parts for 450 bucks for my ls7, I feel like I got the bargain of the century, it certainly doesn't look the best but it has a stock looking appeal. :cheers:
