Question Odd LT-midpipe question.

Can you mix match the brands?

Could I get a BBK LT header and it work with a SLP midpipe?

Reason I am asking is that the SLP headers are EXPENSIVE and I want to keep my SLP axleback exhaust when I add the headers and midpipe.

No, I doubt our headers would accept SLP's mid pipe. BUT, Our headers and midpipe will connect to your SLP axleback system no problem.

That's good enough!
Now I have my next in line mod after I get my 4.10's and Hot Rod Cams in next week.

It will either be the headers and mipipe, or a supercharger next.
It will depend on a number of things. Not cash as far as my decision, I can always save or get a loan... but other issues such as how much further I wanna take my power and whether I want to do so with boost or stay N/A.
Time will tell!

Thanks for chiming in though. As a matter of fact BBK is what I was really wanting to go with on the headers and midpipe... so this makes me happy!

Glad to help! When your ready to order the headers and midpipe, we've made a collector change on the stainless headers, so If you order the stainless headers you must use the stainless midpipe. If you go with our chrome or ceramic coated steel versions, then you need to use the steel midpipe. I don't know why they did that, but now the two versions will not interchange. Just a heads up!!

Thanks for the heads up.
