Thanks Sean!

What's your charge to whack them fittings?

I don't think the TSP catted Y-pipe is stainless. I won't do any exhaust work that's not stainless steel.

Can you advise who's got a SS Y that'll fit your headers?

I don't believe the Catted TSP Y-Pipe is stainless either.

Was talking it over with the partner. We ended up dropping the prices considerably for you guys. If you have any further questions just let me know. Not sure how far out our race version will be, but we will do our best.

Thank you

Man, I am in the market for some TSP LT 1 7/8 headers... but these are pretty tempting! At the least some good info to be learned here though! Just might have to change my mind to a set of Hooker stainless LT's... we owe China enough money as it is!

It amazes me how China can make everything so cheap, and the quality is not bad for the price. My partner and I were saying its pretty sad when we can't even get the material/bends here for the price that these cost.

We build hot rod/sandrail/& turbo headers in house for local customers, and our minum cost is like 800.00-1500.00. We don't even bother competing in the LS market. Pretty sad.

I would also be interested in a race version with bungs in the correct location. I'd also be interested in just the headers (meaning no gaskets, clamps, etc.).

I was *this* close to buying those $182 eBay headers, but something just held me back... Perhaps it's because I am to buy yours!

Thank you for the orders guys. We have sold approx 12 sets, all seem to be good from what we have heard. We will just be selling them as is for now. We will be offering a race version, but were still probably 3-4 months out on them. No plans on the 1 7/8" yet.

Thanks
Sean
