well yes and no. you get some boost loss with them on as well. so headers on a Zl1 are not as rewarding as an SS.
my advice is just pick up the stainless power $629 headers that way the 15hp you gain or so is more in line with the money.
people who buy kooks and arh are just out quite a bit of money for the hp gain.
now if you doing an all out build 700whp+ I think the kooks, arh, stainless power 2" tube headers might be worth the extra coin. on a budget build the extra money is better spent else where as teh fit and finihs on the stainless power is perfect.
car sounds way better with headers for sure and catbacks are more than headers.
