I haven't heard of L/T's and CEL on the 6.2 Raptor being a problem. Is this the case for you?

No, but I'd like to know if long tube headers are responsible for CEL's on the 6.2L.

If there are no CEL issues with long tubes, I'd like to budget for them in the near future.

I see. I've heard of zero issues, you should be good to go.

No problems whatsoever on mine.
I have the Hennessey long tubes and high flow cats. (American brand?)
It also has their tune.

It wouldn't be the headers throwing a code so much as the absence of the cats. As long as you have the cats (high-flow's that you can get with headers are preferred) then you shouldn't have an issue. No CEL's from LT's on 6.2's that I've heard of.

I have the Stainless Works LTH's and dual 3" exhaust. 5 Star Tune with CAI. 2500 HARD miles on the truck. No issues with that.

1. Did you install a CAI?
2. Have you checked your O2 sensors? Are the wires ****** up?
3. Is your tune programmed for LTH's and whatever exhaust you put on it?
