I thought that was the news 2-3 weeks ago. Some Pok Gai drop them off the barge in the middle of the Pacific or something?

Y'all gotta order more than 4 sets at a time.

Na, we have had an eta of 6-8 weeks on our website as of 7/13. We did order more quantity this time, as we have been having a hard time getting complete shipments lately.

Thanks

Lol, were hoping within 2 weeks we should have our next batch. Our 1 7/8" truck headers should be arriving today.

Thanks

I settled for the 3/4s because I wanted to do some timeline stuff. Upset with myself that I paid full price for the "mistake" batch without the merge spikes. I had forgotten all about that 3 pages back. That's what impatience will get you.

Besides that, the quality looks great. Mine came damage free and were shipped fast. I'm ready to turn these spikeless wonders yellowish blue.

kicksZ28: We haven't heard an update on the 1 3/4". Normal eta puts them here in about 2-4 weeks I believe.

CoolAid: We have never had merge spikes on our 1 3/4" headers. We were moving all of our headers over to merge spikes, and unfortunately those were the last batch out before the change was made. Hopefully the next batch has them. Everything else that has come in recently has merge spikes so I am assuming they will.

Thanks
Sean

Not your problem. It was well disclosed pages prior where I had an active presence. Not a big deal really as I'm not building a max effort car. These are really just a sly way of fixing a stock manifold exhaust leak.

Headers came with no damage and the quality would surprise most skeptics, especially the welds. I paid $1,100 for my GTOs stainless LTs with connection pipes (albeit coated) so for a fraction of a fraction of the cost, I got a great deal.

I'm also interested in the 7/8's with the Y pipe. Hopefully 2 weeks and you have some available.

Default Speed Engineering Race Version Headers Now Available!!

Just wanted to provide some feedback. I went with the 1-7/8 and have had them sitting in my garage for quite a while. Very nice looking headers. Workmanship looks good also. Headers are in and everything is test fitted. Should be complete by the end of this weekend
Had to go with TSP ORY based on availability. Trying the SLP loudmouth out but if it ends up being too much will likely swap out the resonator with a Borla XR-1
Will post some more pics when completed

Looks good. I got a great deal on a BNIB Loudmouth so update and let us know how you like it. I'm hesitant to install mine.

The 3/4s:




Driver side. Good long runs of continuous primary, harder curves (than the pass.) probably for steering clearance.




Passenger. Great long runs of continuous primary.




Dat wizz-eye.







Welds.

You can't do better for the money. Not sure why people buy the direct competition for $100 more. Maybe the wait times or I dunno.
