I am getting my vortech supercharger installed this weekend. I am trying to think of all the stuff i can have done while its in the shop. The only thing that i can think of that i have left to do is headers. Are there any longtube headers that dont require you to remove them to do clutch/tranny work? And do they make a huge difference when your blown?

I beleive Flowtech's do not require being removed for clutch work. Ive heard that from several people on here.

you can with macs, even though alot of people swear you can't. i've personally done it twice. you just have to take the 02's out, push up slightly & twist it out to the passneger side & it drops right out

I have the MAC ceramic coated long tubes with the TKO tranny and Spec Stage 3 clutch. I can change it without touching the headers... No problem at all

i have the slp but i never tried. a guy that used to work on my car said that he could change the clutch without removing them because the collectors are smaller then on normal l/t.

i dont know how true this is but he seemed to know what he was doing.

cool, thanks guys. Trying to decide between bassani or hooker. I hope one of them can hook up to my magnaflow X pipe with some modifying. Otherwise what a waste of $450 on the x pipe that i just got put on a few months ago.
