Call Stainless Works see if they can make a set with the AIR tubes. Other choice would be cut off stock AIR tubes and have them welded on headers. Pete

Re: Headers Installed
Well these had all the smog stuff, but it was all welded shut and ground off then they were ceramic coated. I love these things, and no lt-5 should be without headers.
Before I put these on and the fidanza, the lt5 was kind of boring after having the lt1 and lt4. the 2 mods completely transformed this car. This is a very powerful engine.

Re: Headers Installed
There are NO long tube headers made for any smog compliant vehicle that are legal in California. The only way around it is to stuff the LT-5 into a 1972 or earlier car...... At least for the moment. Who knows what those bastards in Sacramento will try next. damn SOB's!

Re: Headers Installed
Doesn't matter if they have all the fittings. They do not have a CARB approved number on them.

Re: Headers Installed
How does CA or other states account for the need to replace Cats? No replacements, so there has to be a rule or way to address this. Is there not an exemption..all else fails get a damn PO Box in IA, SD or some place.

I figure if it passes emissions then your good to go. A visual is a whole other story. In IL if it passed there was no visual. I thought the same for CA. In IL they did away with OBD I emissions When IL had emmisions for OBD I there were ways around it like show car, basicly insure it as a show car limited miles (3K year) Pete
