Daryl Z71's 2006 Silverado Z71 Re-build

Chris · February 20, 2015

Just a set of BBK Ceramic Coated Shorty Headers. I know everyone says to buy long tubes etc, but I've had shorty's before on my 2005, and I was happy with them. Just looking for the sound really.

For me i will have to have a set of ling tubes and a set of shorty. The shorty headers will pass emissions

Figures, always has to be the hard way.

As for my headers, they came about a half hour ago, and they will not work on my truck. They have the opening for the A.I.R Injection which my truck obviously does not have. So I'll be returning them.

They didnt come with a block off plate? Most that have that port come with the plate as well

Haha! your a life saver. I didn't even think to look for that. They are in the box so it looks like I'll be keeping them.

Headers are going to be returned. Not really happy with the quality of them.

See if Blackbear will give you a deal on headers+autocal

I thought about that, but idk if i want any now or not. I might use the money to improve the truck in other areas, and just wait and get a tune later.

Don't you have some bodywork and interior stuff planned?

Sure do. Hopefully by fall I'll have new rocker panels and all the dents fixed in the silver area of the truck with fresh paint. Interior wise I want new carpet with sound deadner on the floor, and a new radio. I also need front brakes and rotors pretty bad.

Tune is the best thing I've done. But it's easier if you get everything on first so you don't have to retune.

I agree. The tune would be the best money wise. I know I'm atleast getting an airaid intake tube. Not sure on headers now though. Edited February 21, 2015 by Daryl Z71
