    Default Ideas on good sounding headers?

    I somehow cracked the right manifold on my 95 chevy K1500 with a 5.7 and now i am just going to go ahead and put headers on it anyone got some suggestions on some that are fairly cheap but good headers overall?

    IMO I like the modern style of Flowmaster series. I think they have a cleaner sound and stand up better than ole glass packs.

    Hey, was that a statement about me just turning 40? I always loved the woodpecker, put was never a fan of glasspacks. Thrush offers a wide range of mufflers now. Follow the link and they have some sound bites on the site.

    The woodpecker emblem itself bring back memories...Being on the side of an old Nova or Chev
