Hey everyone!


Ok its time to start on the exhaust portion of my project. I am looking for either 1) complete headers/side pipes or 2) Ceramic headers for my 69 427. The best price i have found for the headers is $415.00 shipped. I have found SB sidepipe set ups all over the place but i can't seem to find the BB version. Anyway any help is appriciated.

are you wanting to run hooker style pipes or factory pipes..

if you want a set of BB headers ill have a set id let go very cheap very soon.. (once my hooker pipes get here)

they arent ceramic but you can get them jet-hot coated cheap.. and theyll look better, last longer and perform better..

Corvette Central sells sidepipes for big blocks as well as a full side pipe/headers package. Not cheap, but you're likely limited in choices.

Other suppliers probably have similar pacjages available.

I am somewhat torn at the moment. My choices are as follows:

1) Side pipes... $870.00 shipped + $600.00 to have them ceramic coated. But at least this is a complete system. To me they look NICE from the side... but when i look at the omitted tail pipes it leaves me lacking.. however the resale value will go up with side pipes (but i don't think i can part with it for a good long while)...

2) Headers ($164.00 + $250 for ceramic coating inside and out.. + $300 for a custom system). This looks better to me BUT the rest of the exhaust will rot out...

Anyway any imput is appricated.

get the side pipes and replace the rear valence panel
