You can't go wrong with the ARH. They fit perfect, don't leak, are American made and like GMCtrk said, they have the best collector on the market. You get what you pay for. I have put a few sets of headers on in my day and these were by far the easiest set I ever installed. No swearing needed. The Dynatech is a great header. I have had both and highly recommend the ARH.

I don't' think it matters which headers you get. Just stay within your budget. I don't think you will be disappointed with any of them.

But there's no need to buy a stud kit, just reuse your stock manifold bolts, they will work just fine.

A.R. Headers

Hirdlej, ARH's are far from overpriced when you consider all the great features and the fact that they are 100% U.S. made using the finest 304 S/S available. Most trucks will not accept a full long tube if using a Y-pipe is in your plans. Our systems all feature merge collectors with scavenger spikes to help build low and mid range torque. There are trucks producing over 900 HP with our 1-7/8" headers, our Y-pipe with a custom outlet that could be made up to 4". We often custom tailor our systems to suit the application. Try getting that from OBX or others.

You get what you pay for apply's here.

dont' you guys only make a system for the NNBS trucks??
a lot of people i think would be looking for a 1 5/8 primary with 2.5 collector for a daily driver/tow/haul application to keep the power band down low. personally i want more power from off-idle to 5800, not from 5800-up. and when i say power, i mean torque. just my two cents. if you have a product that meets my needs/wants please let me know as i've looked a lot and haven't found it in stainless yet.

Until one breaks off and you have to pull the entire head. Tell me how I'd know..

Cause you did it wrong

did what wrong. The stock bolts are well known to become brittle and break off in the head. OEM head studs are only ~$40 and worth it. They also make installation much easier.

All you need to do is remove them warn the engine is warm, you will be fine.. Tip for ya, next time you do it...

Also the stainless works headers, if your set on not wanting a slip fit, they can slap some v bands on there for ya..

They already broke before I even attempted to remove them dummy. This is common.
