Hey folks, im in the market to get some long tube headers, and since I have a 2013 1LS, im running into the problem of compatibility issues... for instance, I was looking at BBK's long tube headers for my car, and they are only listed for 2010-2012 which is expected because we aren't that far into the year yet... so basically what I am asking is will they work? Will any header that is listed for the previous years fit mine? Thanks allot fellas!

I could be wrong but I thought you couldn't put headers on the LFX engine, which the 2012 and 2013 v6s have. Please correct me if I am wrong...

Yeah as far as I know the headers are part of the block so cannot be changed.
