Just curious, i am going to be ordering a set sometime this winter, and i have never had stainless headers before. Right now i have the coated ones and they look just like the day i put them on. Do the stainless ones look as goood after a few years?? Obviously they wont rust, but do they discolor at all?? Let me know your experience.

Slight color change to a bronze-ish, once you give'em hell for a few days
. Had mine on for a few weeks before the photo was taken. The white stuff in on the bottom of the tranni was my radiator fluid that leaked after I did the free throttle body mod. There is a difference between fuel hose and radiator hose

i can deal with the golden color, just didnt want them to look like hell for the $$ i am going to be forking over. Now the question, ARH, or Kooks?? I like ARH's merge much better, i just wish somebody had a ball and socket y-pipe attachment instead of slip fit joints. I absolutely hate exhaust leaks.
