Default Anyone try these Ebay headers?

Not the long tube's but the shorties. I still have my eyes set on edelbrock shorties but these made me curious.

Just looking at their shipping rate and return policy you'd be better off going with a sponsor here.

Agreed. Hmm.. The edelbrocks would be 414 with shipping and the ebay's would be 212. I'm going to send them an e-mail for more info anyway. Thanks gear

shorties are only worth about 5hp. go longtubes or save your money for something else.

The coating on those look like spray paint. Those are junk dude.

You can get coated Pacesetter longtubes for 359 plus shipping.

Haha! Guarantee they were made by this clown. Those look like modified stock manifolds with a crappy *** weld-job.
Wrap your head around these pictures real quick. This is the quality that you will receive with your paypal deposit.








In short...pay someone that is credible for making quality products.

If your going to go shorties since you won't gain barely any hp anyway you might as well do the ebay headers. Go Long Tubes or keep it stock IMHO.

I have not messed with my exhaust yet but have done a bit of reading on it I believe the sticky below addresses your question. Looks like you are on a budget so go with the Pacesetters. The Flowtech merge in the Y is something to be desired along with the other things pointed out by JRP.
