At this point, I would like to stretch our thanks for everyone who has purchased the header thus far. We're going to add a little something for free for everyone who grabs a header during this sale that normally costs an additional $150.
Exactly how long is the sale? ....

and can we get a hint on the "little something for free?

There ya go, give italianjoe a prize.

All electro polishing will be done (for free) on the pre-ordered headers for the sale purchasers only. This option, which regularly costs $150 will be performed at JBPs' expense. Get your sunglasses ready

I will be ordering during the middle of next week, damn that thing is sexy and I likes the price too!

Also, is it a good idea to have the Wideband 02 bung on the actual header itself?

Does it come with new studs for the head or just the bolts that connect the header-dp?

Does it come with the neccesary gaskets?

Yes, for $18 bucks, we'll throw one on the header for you.

It comes with new bolts, one stock stud is reused.

Does it come with the neccesary gaskets?
No, gaskets are not included with the header.

The sale ends at the end of the month. The remaining units will not be available for the sale price.

According to Autometer and AEM install instructions, it is recommended to have the wideband o2 placed a certain distance from the engine exhaust ports to get a proper reading. (This distance can be found in the install instructions, I don't have them on hand right now).

I can tell you from first hand experience that the best reading will be found when placing the wideband closer to the end of the downpipe, but still before the cat. (This is where zzp's high flow cats become a great asset).

I am not certain how one would fit a wideband sensor into this header as the collector tract is already considerably populated with the existing narrowband.

The stock gaskets are fine. You can get it from any GM dealer.

Each wideband calls for a specific distance from the head, LC-1, AEM, etc... however, the distance we place the wideband at is an optimal point for all sensors on the market.

We offset the wide band bung slightly, offering mounting for both sensors in a relatively easy position to extract the wideband for interval calibration.

so are you saying that they will be delivered in ten days or are you hoping to ship them out in ten days? And what is going to be the shipping method?
Hoping to ship within ten days, not delivered. Shipping is Canada Post, Expedited Courier.
