hello, we have the non ceramic coated long tubes in stock. The shorty H pipe is also in stock. Depending on what state you are in, the shipment could take anywhere from 1-6 days. We are in MD so the closer you are, the less shipping time it will take. Thanks!

Edit, oops, I see you're getting MAC LT, not Shorties, my bad Sorry! ...still, for those considering MAC shorties...

Word of caution about the MAC shorty headers foran 00 V6. While they are great vs stock, three items suck about them.

1) Spark plug for piston #2 is trapped by the the header pipe. It's nearly impossible to remove the plug once the header is installed. - No solution

2) That same header pipe also iscutat such a sharp angle that the plug wire forthe #2 plug will come into contact with it and burn through. - Solution get some high-temp bootsleeves made out of head shield to put over the boot so you don't have the burn through. Moroso and some other companies make them. Problem solved.

3) A.I.R. pipe fittings on the headers are not nearly long enough to allow the pipe to seat before the nut bottoms out. Translating into exhaust leaks around the AIR Pipes fittings. Solution, get some 1/2" compression nut rings and put them between the pipe flange and the headers AIR pipe flange. Also use some Exhaust system leak sealer to put on the threads of the fitting. Tighten as usual. No problems after that.

Last item that's not a problem but will help you. On the studs that connect the header collector flange to the exhaust system, on the Collector Side stud, put Loc-tite RED on them. It will keep the studs from backing out on that end. Use Loctite blue on the stud side where the nut goes.
