      Another Stainless Works recommendation here. I couldn't be happier with mine, and the plain stainless finish looks cool and is very easy to keep looking good. I didn't like my last experience with Hooker's ceramic coating. It just didn't hold up very well for me.

      FYI, go to Summit Racing for the Stainless Works headers. They were a lot cheaper than direct from Stainless Works.

      BTW, I've never heard of Southwest headers either.

      I think the original poster wants some decent budget headers. I'd love to have those sick headers on the Nova, but that's like half the price of the engine build.

      Jeg's has them. Part number from memory is something like CALS1SB. It took almost two months of being backordered before mine showed up. They're very nice headers.........

      +1 for Jegs. They're $763 at Jegs as opposed to $842 directly from Stainless Works. I am also still waiting on mine.

      Huh, it looks like they are no longer listed on their site. I used to be able to punch in the part number found on the Stainless Works site and it would pull up the headers on the Summit Racing site. Maybe they don't sell them anymore?

      The other guys are right, though. Jegs is now selling them http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...0002_328588_-1:

      We are a Stainless Works, Hooker, and Dynatech WD, so we can usually beat Summit or Jegs on LSX parts. Email me if you havent ordered, or need a price on anything else LS Based. [email protected]

      I am using the S&P mounts. You have to get the specific headers from Stainless Works to clear the stock steering box.

      The part number is..."CALS1SB" for the regular finish and "CALS1SBP" for the hand polished.

      Lemons Headers also makes LSX headers. I'm deciding between those and ATS's for my LS7.
