Waiting on a few pieces to come in to install mine. Quality is top notch. 3/8 flanges and the chrome looks good. 2.5 Y-pipe merge is the main complaint, but should be a non issue on a car with less then 500hp. Supposed to have the best fitment of any longtube header available. I hope to be finding out this week if that's true

I ran bbk's on my car for 5 years. They fit great and made good power, they will begin to rust however and turn blue from heat. Although they are really good for what they are with Speed Engineering out now I siply cant recommend them over those ones. The speed ones are 1-7/8 primaries (more hp) and are fully stainless so they'll last forever and they come with a y pipe also in stainless. For less money than the bbk's.

these are the 1-3/4 version

these are the 1-7/8 version but they are now backordered. personally i would wait until these are available.

i agree with redbird , i have the bbks and the fit and install was so easy . A very easy set top install for someone not real good with tools or just doesn't need all out performance .

wish the speed engineering were out when i ordered mine .
