The only set I find there (by searching) is in a post from 2008. Is there another that I missed?

I'm thinking that in February or so I'm going to get serious about finding a new set of Tri-Y's in ceramic somewhere. There's got to be one in some guy's warehouse or basement somewhere, and the trick is finding that guy. I used to go through this every now and then with my '69 Scout so I'm accustomed to the grind... but if nothing turns up in a reasonable period of time I'll just buy the Gibsons and be happy.

There ain't one. On models with the dual inlet cat, at least, the exhaust is the same animal with the only difference being the intermediate pipe on the club cab models.

I just hope they really exist, I have been hunting for certain parts lately and well they are shown on the site and I can add them to the shopping cart but they end up sending me a e mail saying no longer available.

That's my concern, too. If they don't have them physically in their possession, then they probably won't be able to deliver them. Time will tell.

Well, I did order the ceramic Gibbson headers.Also ordered a set a Stage8 Header bolts. I should have them by Friday if all goes well. They are coming UPS ground, so I may not get them until Monday since they don't work now on the weekend, but it will be on the Road the first of next week.

Well, my headers came in today when I was at work. Man are they nice looking and I can't wait to install them. Going into work at 6 in the morning. I don't have to start until 8 on maybe it will cool down enough to do atleast one side ( The Broke Drivers Side ) before 8. I also got the stage 8 header bolts, but they don't look long enough to me. If there to short I will have to use my old ones. Will take pictures if I remember and the Sony is charged.

Yeah when I first got my stage 8 bolts I thought they looked too short, but after removing the factory manifolds and getting the header lined up with the gaskets they worked perfect.

A little tip, I used pb blaster on all the bolts so I didnt have a problem breaking them off.

Also leave the factory stud in the block, it will help you line up the headers and gaskets.

Good luck!
