  • N body headers

    60inclusive is about ready to roll on some N body headers, but we had a discussion about the market and I figured I should just ask.

    Do you want the same style headers as the J and L body (medium length near equal length) for the same cost as the rest, or do you want shorty headers that are cheaper and easier to produce. By cheaper, I mean $100+ easily. Until they would be done, the price would be just estimate.

    If I personally wanted a set I would want the near equal length style that was made for the J and L bodies but being around the grand am community as long as I have I know just how cheap most of the people are.

    So basicly cheaper would be better IMO.

      $600 coated (w/o downpipe) is still cheaper than anything that was available before.

        I'd rather see them get done right.
        Equal length (or as close to it as possible).
        My S&S headers won't last forever.

          Depends on how cheap you can make them, but if it is only a difference of $100 I say equal legnth all the way.
          The majority of the N-Body crowd is now between the ages of 16-22, all talk with a few coins in their pocket that would go toward a new stereo or something that looks pretty before they could save up for a worth while engine mod.

          If they could make better flowing log manifolds out of mild steel tubing that would use the stock X-over, I could see them selling if they were priced $400 or less.

            I agree I already had to replace my rear header right before they went under.

              Not a very good turnout for feedback and most of those already own headers.

                If I had to vote it would absolutly be for equal length headers. Im still looking for a set for my car, but I still dunno if any would fit or not, or how much I would have to modify the firewall for them to fit. Either way I still want a set of headers and DP.

                  even though i already own some i would like some equal length headers.

                  sadly though most of the crowd now are as cheap as they come. a lot of the veterans who were willing to spend the money have either moved on or already have headers.

                      What about posting on GAGT.com or Aleromod?

                        I do not sponsor those sites and I hardly post on either of them as well. There are quite a few N body owners on this site, and I posted it up on the WOT-Tech home page.

                          Nick-G posted it on GAGT.com. I don't think anyone ever responded to it though.
