Post New source for long tube headers for gen 2s at a low price

I was looking around today for a set of headers for the L and was wondering if anyone has filled the need for long tubes for our gen 2s and surprisingly enough, someone did and matter of a fact Lightningforce has them. I found them to be a great price and I'm really tempted to order a set but luck would have it that I just spent my money . Email me at BlkDeath01@aol.com if you would want more info.

Are they carb legal?

A couple of guys that I race with have a set of long tube headers for thier Camaro SS. They cannot stand the fact that they have to play catchup to a ford truck with exhaust. So what did they do? Nittos, throttle body, and 4.10:1 gears. Same result. Now they ave these slick new headers and no one will install them because they are not carb legal. Something to do with all the exhaust shops being immission test centers.

Get this, they found someone to do it in the valley, but the parts wont fit in the car, they need a truck to help them out!

This same guy told me someone just came out with long tubes, but I really dont want to mod this truck...

I believe they have O2 sensor holes and are cat compatiable so I would think so.

I got a set of long tubes from Lightning Performance this week. Haven't put them on yet. Mine were not cheap but you usually get what you pay for.

I installed the Long Tubes that were on High Risks truck. They were made by Lightning performance and replaced the Bassani headers.
I still have my Cats.
