Default kooks headers

i know there are some guys running kooks f-body headers around here, pics anyone? I'm looking at a set of 1.875"x3" would be changing my entire exhaust system if i do it. I'm tired of the 1.625"x2.5" truck headers and 2.5" true duals on it now. want something that flows better and isn't as loud. show me what you got kooks f-body header guys.

be prepared to lose quite a bit of low end torque.. there's a reason the exhaust on your truck is 2.75" from the factory.

it wont lose anything that i'm not using now...the mid/high gains with these headers is WELL worth any loss that it will encounter on the stock motor. the 374 will be just fine. not worried about any low end loss with either motor really.

that's for your judgment.. but i'd honestly wait until you have the 374 built.

nah...no need, it'll be fun to mod the 4.8 a little before the new motor. i'm gonna put the big cam, headers, new exhaust and intake on the 4.8 and see what it does. maybe 11s with a 4.8!!! hah, probably not...
