Use the advanced search button and search "ebay headers". Plenty of threads will come up and you can make your decision off what you see.

No, use the search feature. Type in "ebay headers". Those headers have been around for a LONG TIME. So please, try a search.

I bought mine off Ebay. Most of the Ebay headers are the OLD xs headers made my ssautochrome.

I am planning on getting some SS LT's too off ebay... I offered $160 but it says I have to pay $49 shipping that that's non-negotiatable... I wonder how installation is on these headers?

Pretty much. He had OBO bellow the BIN option, and i gave him an offer of 120, he accepted. The shipping was like 40 and it got here in 3 days from date of paypal sent.

It's round tubes people. You aren't going to see $500 worth of gains over any of them. Dimensions and tube sizes are equal. What rocket science are in any of them?

that is a sweet deal, I think i will have to do that one of these days. Do you by chance remember his seller name? Also do your collectors get close to your floor boards? Thanks, sorry for all the questions.

I have the ssautochrome headers and ypipe. We had to cut the drivers side header and reweld it as it was pointing to the floor boards. If you are just going with the ory you would be ok, but I needed space for cats. The headers themselves installed with no headaches. My car makes 397 rwhp with a small 224 cam and stock light ported heads fwiw

EXACTLY......finally someone gets it. dam pple its exhaust its not heads/cam/supercharger/nitrous all in a $160 stainless steel "knock off" package....just buy the dam things already. Worst case something happens, okay you only spent $160 but it was worth trying it out. And what happens if it just so happens to be a semi decent product...you got your moneys worth, saved a couple hundred, AND it performs the same as any other sets of exhaust pipes. Now you can take the money you saved and buy a tornado fuel saver... lol
