It would be cool to see these fit 1st gen and 1.5 gen W-Bodys without modification or with minor modification compared to the S&S headers. Make them a MUCH better choice for us W-Body owners.

J and N body (pre 99) should fit with these though. Those cars share a lot of stuff.sigpic

Once you get the angle right on the rear header, to get it to fit the 3t40 you have to slightly ding the #1 tube so that it will clear the speedometer drive housing.

S&S has Alero headers as a stock item.
They are what the others are modifying to fit everything else.
I have them on my Beretta.

MY91GT(Z), again, I am sorry about the delay, but opening a new shop took 2 weeks out of my life
Here's what I got as of about 20mins ago when home...

lol @ gar...
Well got the loner headers cleaned up and this is the aluminum-colored ceramic. We also have chrome and black, but a few other colors are available...

Almost time to list them on the store
Those look really nice with the ceramic coating.

planning on moving the O2 bungs to a more accessible place?

I wonder what the chrome looks like. If it really is shiny like chrome or not. Or just metallic silver if you don't polish it... Either way the gray looks good too. O2 bung would be nice to be lower in where the two pipes merge, but not sure about clearance without having a car there to mock up... A heated O2 would be a must I'd think, with any setup stock or not. Are you going to have EGR port there too? I'm undecided on running EGR on the new motor. I'd like to keep it clean and less crap in the way, but MPG benefit might be worth it.
Did you tweak the flange angle from those pics I sent you? Might want to build the jig to include that measurement....
So is that set sold? I sent a PM to Shane but never heard back. Or is he keeping them now?? LOL As you know I'm going to NEED these come spring.

If i can do it in a J body it can be done in a L body

Dave........ exception to the rule.
most people woudn't bother with it, or be too intimidated.
i'm sure if john wanted to, he could make them, but that probably adds a bit of extra cost and complexity...
