I have yet to see a good post come out of you. I have only posted facts and corrected bullshit. If someone's first posts are as good as mine instead of like your first posts, I guess I'd like to be called a troll.

It's me.. I'm sorry. I didn't think there was enough whining going on around here so I made a separate account.

black2002ws6,

Man I'm tellin ya. All the people that hate on these headers probably end up making you more money. I have never understood why people choose to bash you and these headers so much.

You'd think this guy was selling the clap in a bottle. Not once have I ever seen people get this so fired up about a product.

If you want to bitch, go bitch to Kooks, or ARE or some of the other big names that charge over a grand. You think this guy is ******* you? The big companies are REALLY ******* you.

How much money does it take to R&D a header? How much?

It's like guy's that buy vettes(please no vette owners take offense thats not the point)They pay more for **** cause it says Corvette on it.

Now I agree, there are some parts that cost more for a reason. Cylinder heads are one. But headers? Christ people, a set of 1,000 dollar headers are not going to give you 30 more RWHP. A better set of cylinder heads might.

I bought my set of XS, LPP, OBX, ACME whatever the hell you want to call them headers six months ago because I was worried the price would go up. Now they are coming out with an updated set of headers and y pipe.

Dammit I should have waited.

The only thing I can figure is this......

black2002ws6 is a pimp....and he must be going around ******* a bunch of board member's chic's. I mean straight up pile driven ladies. This is the only thing I can think of to make people bitch and moan about his product.

black2002ws6, keep on pimpin, and keep on sellin us some damn fine headers.

Well it seems your riding your 5 minutes of fame from your first post. We all got the point, and you post the same thing.

Nobody has out right said these are POS headers, most had questions on them.. Still they have not been answered.

I was pretty sure I was drunk when I posted that. Sorry bout that.

I agree, I pretty much just repeated myself. But every thread about these headers are exactly the same. People talk about how good they are and other people talk about where they are made and ebay. I am unsubscribing to this thread. It's pointless.

The only question I have for the seller is, how come my Ebay headers say XS all over them? If he can answer that question with a reasonable answer I will leave this thread. IF they are indeed the same headers I got, they look awesome! They do look exactly like the pictures the OP has posted.And are also shipped from NC to me...People just want to know.

Has anyone with a problem with the headers/seller/whatever tried PMing the guy? I don't recall anyone saying that he hasn't responded to PMs. I know he was very quick responding to my inquiry.

But if he answered the questions in this thread he would shut everyone up...By him not responding most people assume the worst.

Ok I've been staying quiet because this thread has taken a right turn from what I started it for. If you read thru all 9 pages you will see I have been answering everyone's questions.

When the bashing started it pretty much killed this thread for me.

All I can say now is yes XS headers are made by SSautochrome. They are the headers that I have been selling here. But now they will be making LS1 headers for me and they will no longer be selling their XS headers. I did some redesigning on the headers and y and they will be making my design just for me which I will be the ONLY one selling the new design. From now on they will be LPP headers and Y but will still be delivered from SSautochrome to the customers. They are drop shipped from them. The LPP headers will never be on Ebay unless I decide to put them on there myself.

So once again I'm trying to make and even better product at a more realistic price for my fellow LS1 owners. But I'm starting to think it's not worth it. When you try to do what I'm doing you catch all kinds of grief from everybody because they think you can't make a better product and sell it cheaper than the other companys out there. But I am. There's so many days I wish I would have just started out selling them for $1000 and then everybody would think there the best thing out there just because the cost $1000.

There you go. Best thing you could have said. **** all of the haters and the little bitches who are coming in here without ever even touching the headers. I do not have one complaint about mine and if I were to do it all over again, I would STILL buy them vs the others.

Hopefully in 30 to 60 days.
I already got the first sample but didn't like the way the collectors turned out so I redesigned them and sent the sample back. So now I have to wait until they can make the changes and send me another sample then if every thing's ok they can go into production.
For good news the changes I made to the Y are fine and it's ready for production just waiting to get the headers right. Don't know if everyone's seen the thread I started about the new Y but here it is:
