well i have $200 to blow, i am thinking i am getting my header as i said eariler. and here they are. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-HEADERS-82-92-CAMARO-TRANS-AM-SHORTY_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33631QQitemZ8040 442331QQrdZ1 But should i get a shift kit instead? i am debating which one to get. And is there any thing els i can get for $200 for perfromance that is worth the while? I am going to do the lt1 cam swap later. So what do you think?

i know people say they don't have AS MUCH flow as magnaflow but i will take less flow for better sound.

well, i just bought them. now i have to waite for them to get here and when they do i will put them on. But i am shure you will see me posting again when i get them, i am shure i will run into some kind of a problem. And how much of a hp gain will i see with these headers and a flowmaster exhaust?

Full bolt on, tuned, and properly running l03 will put down about 180-195 to the ground, I'd say you'd be about 150-170.

Won't see as much gain with flowmaster as opposed to a free-flowing system (i.e. borla or magnaflow), but it may sound alright

ok so i will see about 190hp with the headers and exhaust? And i here prolems with the gaskets on the headers. The ones in the pic on the link are thoes good ones? or should i buu diffrent one? and do i have to put any sealer on them when i put the gasket on?

id go with the headers...i felt more gain from my headers and flowmaster exaust then i did with a shift kit...if you are getting flowmasters make sure you keep your cat because it makes the flowmasters not sound as good if you dont have one impo...And for the gaskets ya deffinately get better ones then those..im getting ready to buy some copper ones..ive heard good things about them...and after you install the headers make you sure you go back and tighten the bolts about a month after the install..i didnt do that then my bolts started backing up and i fried my gaskets...
