Thanks

£800.00 is a fair amount of cash. Can stainless manifolds be bought for a,cheaper price in the USA?

These are £393 based on current exchange rates. http://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/h ... del/camaro

Plus shipping, plus 20%VAT and Import duty.

VAT and import should add about £120, making it about £510. I reckon about £60 for shipping? So looking at approx £570. Better than £800 but still quite a lot for some bent tubing.

Not sure how long regular headers last... mine have been on for about 2 years (without use). i reckon maybe 3-5 years? Say 5 years. Economically speaking you could buy 6x pairs of regular steel headers from somewhere like real steel and that will get you through the next 30 or so years, for the cost of a stainless set. See if somewhere like Real Steel, Top Speed or similar can get you a stainless set. Hopefully they can get a better deal on shipping etc. so you may end up in the £300/ 400 zone.

My Hedman 1 3/4" headers cost about £220 about 6 years from Real Steel and have around 20k miles on them, and still are solid, but definitely nothing like as good condition as the full stainless exhaust which is a year older...

Optional air con was specced for my car. Due to the lack it not being hooked and lack other componentary it doesn't work. The A/C suit case had some splits in it too...



...so out it came yesterday...



Tried my best to remove it intact but access and clearance for tools to remove was limited, came out easy enough



A/C master delete kit should be here later this month

...and here it is.

Chose the master kit over standard since my interior fan motor is failing. Included a new heater matrix which was a bonus
