Thorley headers with y-pipe; I chose these because:

1. I wanted long tubes
2. I needed a new y-pipe
3. 14ga steel
4. Thorley name known for quality
5. Nice customer service reps
6. The y-pipe is custom made for the 6" lift!

For the cost of this setup (flash chrome finish) @$488 from summit, I am saving money from buying shorties and getting a new y-pipe made; The rep said a modest 2-3mpg gain and 30-40ft/lb torque should be realized. I know the chrome finish won't hold up, but I don't care. It's a truck, and they are headers.

I will post a write up when I get them.
