I'm Rick from Stainless Works in Chagrin Falls, Ohio. We are pleased to announce the release of our BRAND NEW Mandrel Bent 304 Stainless Steel full system (headers/catback) for the Silverado SS! We are currently the ONLY company to produce stainless headers and true dual exhaust for this ground pounding "Super Truck"! I have included two links to some sound clips of a Silverado with our full system (headers, cats, and true duals catback) pulling out of our shop below for your viewing/listening pleasure and I think you will agree that this system sounds AWESOME!!! Also no dyno pulls with this system yet but here is a list of peak HP and TQ gains on different cars and trucks with our full systems and a tune. Check us out at www.stainlessworks.net" target="_blank">http://<span style="color:Blue">www....rks.net</span> for more products and sound clips of our performance stainless steel exhaust systems!

can you make LTs for a 2wd with 3" collectors and 1 7/8 primaries?

 

send me a pm... I am interested in this exhaust but want it to exit the rear like the SLP exhaust does, on the corners

 

Quick,

We haven't yet built a set of headers for the 6.0L trucks with a 1 7/8" primary tube. 1 3/4" should be sufficient all of the way up to around 600 RWHP. Also considering the weight of the truck, having a slightly smaller primary tube is beneficial because there is more back pressure and more torque is created to get the heavy truck moving. We only make a large primary tube header for lighter 6.0L cars like the C6 Vette and Z06. Even for a supercharged application a 1 3/4" primary header on a 6.0L is suitable... we have 03'-04' 4.6L supercharged mustang Cobras making 600 RWHP using our 1 5/8" header just to give you an idea. There is a science to building headers that goes far beyond just flow alone and bigger isn't always better. Check out www.headerdesign.com for more info on how headers actually work to make you more power.

You may want to edit that sentence when you get a chance.

 

No... that is correct. Having good flow and still having some back pressure is beneficial with a heavy vehicle because it creates more low end torque. Dramatically oversizing your exhaust system/headers (or even your intake tract for that matter) can actually have a detrimental effect on performance. This is the reason that we chose to use a 1 3/4" primary tube on both the Silverado and Trailblazer SS systems and a 1 7/8" and 2" on the C6 and ZO6.

OK, first, I am not an expert.

From your headerdesign site:

I know what you are trying to say, but "scavenging" is the goal of proper primary size, not "backpressure"

Anyway, not trying get off topic.

The products look and sound good.

Lets see the dyno #s or track times.

PS. that SSS looks familiar, is the owner a member on this site?

and again thats why i asked for 1 7/8s i wont have a 6.0 over winter i need it for my 7200 rpm turning 408. i need to flow so i need the tube size....if you can make them ill give you guys money if not ill get them custom

 

Ok, gotcha... you are precisely right and for you larger motor 1 7/8" would work best... ( also I didn't know that you had read the header design site).

If you are local to Cleveland we can build custom headers for you. Give us a call @ 800-878-3635.

I'm glad that you did because not many people know that headers can do THAT much. You are absolutely correct. These are all design aspects that we incorporate into our header but keep in mind that these processes that they are talking about are at an emperical level. As a general rule, because everyone's motor will be different from the factory and everyone will mod their engine different my statement was a just a generalization. As a rule more low end torque will be observed with a smaller primary tube (to a certain degree-- obviously) ... but the ultimate goal is to achieve all the things that you mentioned. These things as I'll explain are very seldom (if ever) tuned into perfect harmony on a street car.

In a factory motor the flow through each port and the AFR in each cylinder will be can vary significantly so that pulse wave in each primary tube will not be timed correctly to take full advantage of a properly designed header... especially at high RPM (not to mention from engine to engine). Stock car builders can have 500+ hours in cylinder head work (valve depth, porting, etc.) to get each cylinder to match the others PERFECTLY. For this reason it's mostly a myth that equal length headers on a street car will make you more power; because nothing else is equal.

We incorporate all that you read into each header but for a factory produced car used in non-competition driving we have to use the dyno and the track to tell us what works best for most cars. On 6.0L small blocks under 500hp the 1 3/4" seems to create the best performance.

Tell all you buddies to check out that site as well!!!

those clips sound very nice, is the truck tuned? just curious.
