I like the merged collectors. Curious to see the dyno on these. Do they supply a Y-pipe and O2 fittings?

getting the collectors to seal is going to be a PITA. Just like my dynatechs

I had to cut the collectors in half, weld the primaries from the inside and then weld the collector back together. Only leakfree way I could find.

Good luck with them

Do they make a set of step-headers that don't leak - without welding them?

Not so sure that my next step-up will be to get rid of my SLP L/T and go with a step-up set.

Best way to seal them up is to put the collector on and run a bead around the tubes connecting them right on the edge of the collector but not welding to the collector. Then fill the space inbetween the tubes and the middle of them. Finally slip the collector on and weld the collector to the previous bead all the way around. Should seal up perfectly.
