    I need new water jacketed headers. Looking at the Bassett Tri-Y Design
    and Lightnings. I know a lot of peeps run lightning.
    Has anyone had experience with or done any testing on these headers?

    Lightning 16ga 316 SS 2yr Warranty $3200 Perf???? Quality ????

    My lightnings are standard, not Stainless (Wish I'd had the extra $$). Made 50HP on a moderately moddified 454 with stock heads and low compression.
    I sure like the looks of the Tri-Y's, and want those at repalcement time.
    I have been told that the Bassets will make a bit more power, being actual differeing length tuned headers, but I do not know for certain, and, if I got 50 HP (200 RPM) from my Lightnings, maybe 55 from the Bassets? Nothing I'd be able to tell anyhow.
    Good luck to you. I don't think either will dissapoint you.
