From my experinse getting LT header is not going to change the sound of the car. At leastto make itnoticeable.It is when you remove the cats from your car. Like going with a orx or orh. That willchange how loud yourcar is going tosound.

Yes, you're right. Any suggestions on a good set of headers that are easier[/align]to install ? I hear they're a real bit** to install. Or do they all fit about the same ?[/align]

There's no such thing as a long tube header that is easy to install. I did BBK LT's on mine. It was a pain to get then in, but the fit was excellent. DO NOT buy the BBK X if you go this route. It sounds like ***. I kick myself evertime I start my car up because it's so raspy

It was recommended that I buy Hooker LT's. Any comments on that ?

Hookers make some real good products but I would say just go with some BBK's

Question for you, did you move the engine at all, or just lift the car and muscle them in?
