im running the stepped stainless steel ebay headers and have been for afew months and i cant complain about long term issues. the welds are great and the finish is awesome (lightly discolored from the heat) the only thing i had to deal with was abit of fitment issues. but a hammer solved all of those problems lol

I have had my LPPs on for almost a year and a half now. They have discolored slightly (purples and yellows) but no rust whatsoever. Very very minor fitment issues, nothing I couldn't handle.

Ive installed some ebay headers before on a few cars at the shop and had to beat them to clear the steering linkage and bend to keep from hitting floorboard. I wasnt impressed with fitment.

Very nicely. The slip-fit collectors help tremendously.

I way over budget with my build but as soon as the cc's are paid off I am going to switch from my mac's with a e cutout to LT's dumped at the axle.

Im on strano springs tho, so I am worried. I could care less about the exhaust but the header collectors are going to take the beatings.
