Just a quick update. These things don't even exist on the Lethal Performance site anymore.

Also, the ones on the Blow By Racing site are Mid-length headers and are not the same as the ones that *were* listed on Lethal Performance. Here is a link to the Granatelli site with the same product as was listed on the Lethal Performance site. It sounds like these may not actually be available yet, but there is a significant difference in the design from the ones on Blow By's site. These are long-tubes, not mid-length.

That photo on Granatelli's web site is the same one that was up on Lethal Performance.

I am 99% sure that it's actually a set of Dynatech longtubes in that photo. On the other hand, the ones that were shown on Blow By's site are very different.

DESPITE the images on blow by and Lethal/Granatelli being different, the PART NUMBERS are identical.

As I mentioned in my earlier post, I think there is something wierd going on here.... I'm willing to bet that someone (Granatelli) doesn't have photos for whatever reason, and so they substituted a different set of headers and hoped nobody would notice.

If you take a close look at the picture of the headers on the Granatelli page I posted, you'll notice that the headers have a Granatelli label on them on the right arm of the X-pipe. They certainly look close in design to the Dynatech's, but the picture doesn't match any of the pictures I've seen on vendor sites for the Dynatech headers.

I'm sure that something weird is going on here. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if Granatelli bought the rights from Dynatech to reproduce their headers and sell them as their own. I would also be very surprised if you'd actually be able to get the long-tube version of the Granatelli's pictured anywhere. I'd say they probably don't exist yet. Kind of like the billet version of the Hurst shifter that's been coming soon for about 5 months now. I'd also venture a guess to say that you won't be able to get the long-tube version for $600 bucks if they ever do start shipping.

Just to add more confusion to the discussion here is a web site that has them for $510 reduced from $595.

http://www.sportcompactonly.com/prod...54&l=2&mk=Ford

Pictures don't match Granatelli site, but it does say that picture shown might not reflect true product.
If you take the part number posted on the website and search Grantelli it shows complete set-up with cats.

Yeah, I did get a tune.

I got the tune from Brenspeed. I just told him I had the headers and he sent me an updated tune.

We use the same CATs as Dynotech – Our headers are not $595.00 - who has them for that price? They are

For $1,496.66 I'd go with one of the 304 grade stainless systems Al mentioned. Of course I'm partial to the ones in my sig lol.
