Default Discounted Gibson headers?

Before I poke the spend button, does anyone know of a source of Gibson headers that sells below typical retail? (I'm looking at the GP301S-C and a typical price of $609 with shipping included.)

Thanks in advance!

How do you feel about a pair of Shorty Pacesetters for 365.47 ? Their armour coated which I think is their ceramic coating.

I'm already sold on the Gibsons, just hoping to save a few bucks.

If I could score a set of Thorley Tri-Y's I'd pass on the Gibsons without a second thought, but I'm stuck just kicking myself for not grabbing the last pair I saw and setting them aside until installation time.

Thanks ennyhoo!

Default Never mind -- poked the Spend button

I just went ahead and poked the Spend button because I'm either not smart enough to be patient or not patient enough to be smart.

Ive got a set of pacesetters and a magnaflow y-pipe cat sitting in a cart for about a week. Cant decide to pull the trigger on them or a sct tuner.

Don't waste money on pacesetter headers.

Best option: http://www.spintechmufflers.com/prod_728.html

For shorties you'll very much like the Gibsons.

They'll probably look just like Gibson headers.

I'll pop a photo or two anyway just for amateur gearhead ****. In this phase it's getting the headers and TCP electric fan shroud. I was hoping to upgrade coils and hang bumpers at the same time, but the bumpers are four to six weeks out.

Oooohhhh... I just this instant heard from a guy who can get me the bumpers faster. I'm off to call that guy now. fkin-a.

I was gonna say go for the JBA's simply because of collector transition and easier install. Just get yourself a good crowfoot socket and you should be fine.
