Looking inside the primaries, those are actually made reasonably well.
Post some pics looking into the collectors.
Does a magnet stick to any part of the headers...?

The OP's pics show 2001-2002 style (the position and orientation of the AIR tubes);
OP's sig says he has a 1999...

If I remember right, that 2553 number sounds very familiar. I will look through some papers, but I may be thinking of 1153 or 1553, something similar, but I think mine are 1153, and the 2553 are the '00-'02 headers. Mine are probably 5 years old. 1 3/4" Hooker Super Comps coated. '98-'99 w/ emission provisions and no expansion slits on the flanges. They have the super comp tag welded on and yes the coating is ****. Mine is a no salt, never driven in rain (but sits in it), stored winters and they are trashed. They do fit extremely well and tuck up nicely. Never any problems besides corrosion.
I am not up to date on manufacturers, but I thought Flowtech was a sub-company of Hookers? Could these possibly be Flowtech headers? Either way I would just run them, not a bad price and would be a lot of hassle sending them back and all that.

Yes you can remove emissions and use block off plates, it WILL throw a code for those things missing/unplugged. No, performance will not be effected because of the codes.
