i paid around $350 USD for it here in the states. but it did cost more because i had it ceramic coated. you can get a chrome one thats cheaper...its the same header but with chrome on it, it will discolor under the heat. i didnt want mine to discolor so i paid the extra.

i just coverted it, it comes out to approximately $387.06 (COD)

If you can find it cheaper, I can fix it.

Well this is about what I posted yesterday.


'm running a Doug Thorley header. I love it. Its about 1/2" above the frame with my motor dropped one inch and layin flat. LC also makes a header that comes in two pieces that you just don't use the second piece on. I don't remember the cost on the LC. But my Thorley was $200 shipped.
