If I could have gotten the header off of the driver's side of my C5Z I likely would have replaced my LGM Pro headers when I was replacing the starter and motor mounts. But it looks like I would need to disconnect some fuel and oil line plumbing in order to get that header out of there. The passenger side came out OK, but it definitely was a tight squeeze and looks like it would ONLY come out one way and one way only.
Kooks has been around for a long time, so I'm sure they are a quality set of pipes.
Are you getting them ceramic coated? If not, you might want to put some kind of heat shield around the starter, and perhaps even the motor mounts. If the Kooks fit like my LGM Pro headers, getting to the starter if you need to replace it will mean at least loosening up the header on the passenger side to get to it. So some heat protection to prolong the life of the starter might be a good idea.

I will check with Greg if they are coated or not.
