Default Header question...

One of my buddies who does my exhaust told me that the pacesetter headers flanges would eventually warp.. And Doesn't recommend them... I already purchased these headers... What do you think? Stick with em or?
Thanks for any responses..

i think a vast majority of us run them, dont listen to your buddy. i know a guy on here has had them for over 100k mi. Dont worry about it. This is the most recomended budget header. I personally have a pair on my car, and so do a few of the people i run around with. Next step up would be qtp or kooks and thats abouta grand

i think the pacesetter flanges are actually thicker than most, several times on here i've heard of people bottom out stock bolts before they clamp on the flange because the flange is thinner on some brands, which is why they almost always come with bolts. the pacesetters can be used with stock bolts because they are atleast as thick as the stock one...
