Re: eBay Long Tube header install... pics inside

I have the same headers on my '01 tahoe, best bang for the buck out there. I know what ya mean on the sound, I had to add a 12" long bullet in front of the magnaflow muffler I already had on there to tame it down and it's still pretty angry sounding.

You got lucky none of the factory exhaust manifold bolts were rusted through, it's pretty common on these things. I had two of them snap the heads right off as soon as I put a wrench on them, had to weld nuts to them to get em out.
