I just helped a friend put FLP headers on a Z06. I was very impressed with the fit and finish of the product. They went in vey well. Did you have the same experience with the FLP's on your SS and did you have a before and after dyno? Just wondering a little bit about headers. Putting on them on the Z06 yesterday got me to thinking!

Really wish I could have come...it's only 10 minutes away from me, yet, I unfortunately had to work. I'd love to get my first dyno done to my car since I just recently added a bunch of mods to my car. Hopefully soon again in the future perhaps. [Smile]

I didn't install the headers myself. I had them installed. It only took Mike at Rapid Motorsports 2 hours to put them on. I didn't have it dynoed before the headers. I did run it on the strip before and after headers. ET was .5 better and mph was 4mph better. The guy at the dyno shop said I should get another 15-20 rw/hp after a tune-up.

No, I never dynoed the 69. I would be afraid to take it up to red-line. The engine has never been apart with 75K miles on it. I don't want to have to rebuild the engine. I know the 69 isn't as fast as the 02 SS.

It only took 2 hours. I was there when they were installed. This guy is really good. He going to tune up my car next week. He has a 99 TransAm that runs in the 9's.

I'm not saying it can't be done it 2 hours but I would like to see it myself.

Alot of shops quote 4 or more hours and he is doing it in half the time.
Even if he charged $75 an hour its $150 for a header swap, he is real cheap also.

Too bad he isn't closer.
