Man these headers look real good, there flawless!!(Literally) Welds are perfect. After seeing people on here purchasing them and installing them i thought id scoop up a pair for myself before the price goes up or they stop selling them. Ill post picks as soon as i get them on my computer. Seller does good business too, shipping only took 4 days to get here. Cant wait to get them on but i want to put the x-pipe setup on them. I dont really want to go y,cat-back. Best bang for the buck.

I'm just finishing up putting mine on my car, they fit like ****. I wouldnt recommend them to anyone. My car was a virgin also, first mod to it. Out of all of the installs i've done, this is by far the worst fitting header yet, besides the SLP's...
Mine are rubbing on the K-member like no other. For the driverside, i had to remove the steering and the little T above the oil filter and then hit them up in with my hand...

I bought them from powerboost29, as far as fitment goes you probably need to trim the k-member and the little piece off the block and your set. even though you need to do a little triming these are the best headers for the price, 321 stainless for $350 shipped, its worth it!

its a piece on the block that has no purpose, it was for the assembly line for when the car was being made, no big deal. but i guess different people have different opinions on how and what they do when their modifying their vehicle.

Did you get the headers from powerboost or ssautocorme, also how were the welds on yours?

I ordered mine the 28th. I got an email from them saying they are on vacation, so no communication till Aug.5th. Although it said they will ship in a timely manner(within 2 business days of my payment clears). I guess I'm waiting because paypal hasn't cleared it yet. It should clear by Aug. 2 it said. Anyways, their last names are Lane. Would they by any chance have anything to do with these Lane's true duals I hear about all the time?

I ordered mine from ss autochrome. The welds are real nice. I did have to trim the k member and the little casting piece on the block. However if you read the threads about installs from pacesetter or any other header maker most of them have the same issues. Nice headers and fast shipping.

problem is that people will see a guy's car at a car show or the track or a club meet or whatever, and say "yeah, I"m gonna have to get a set" They will ask where they got them and what they paid, and people will hear 700 bucks for QTPs or kooks or whatever.... and they will be thinking " I'll shop around and see what I can find, gotta be a cheaper option" ON goes teh computer, and strait to ebay.. next thing you know "look what I found!!" They buy them, not even knowing about this site, or the troubles with them... until after tehy have them in hand, and are trying to install them, and are having problems. Then they go looking around on the net for install advise/help.... that kinda thing happens all the time.
As I said, you get what you pay for. My qtp's went on my car in early 2002, back before they even started the hvmc's, it was that long ago. They fit like a glove then, and still do, and there's no rust, no leaks, welds have all held up great, all that. Not saying that you have to buy qtp's, but if you want a quality part, you are gonna pay for it, wether it be headers, brakes, pistons, anything really.
