as i was out putting some things back together to drop the motor in my car, i noticed my stock headers on my 88gt were a little bent up at some places and really not looking too well...

so would you guys reccomend i buy new ones.. i have an o/r bbk hpipe (no cats) and flowmaster mufflers..

so i was thinking unequal bbk's.. sound good?

if so wheres the cheapest place to pick a set up at??

yeah summit is where i found the cheapest so far. didnt know if there was somewhere else cheaper or not..

and ive decided i dont want chrome because i heard after awhile they will start to rust like crazy and look like crap.. is this true?

The tubes are so short that equal length headers don't make much of a difference, if any at all.

Stick with unequal length headers and you'll be happier overall with ease of install and maintainence..
