These headers look OK?
These headers look OK? Hey guys, I was just wondering if you all thinks these headers look good? are the measurements big enough? thanks!
1 3/4" x 3" Full stainless steel header.

Measurements are good. That is basically what every other header is.
Those are good budget headers with a few modifications.
You need to cut the collector off the driver side header and re weld it so it sits straight. You also need to grind the K-member on both sides.
Other than that they are supposed to be pretty good.

So bang for the buck means initial cost is less, but you need to notch your K-member and block, as well as cut and re-weld the collector? I will pay extra for not having to do that with my Hookers (or any other quality, non-low balling supplier). 
Headers look good, but if they require that much work to fit them in, I would say pass.

Can't tell you ya' or nay' because it's not allowed since they aren't a sponsor, but I have them and it takes slight modding to make them fit. I had my driver's side collector cut and dropped 1/4", the air/egr fittings DO NOT line up (mine are deleted so I had them plug welded, but I do know someone who made them work with little effort), and on mine I had to do some slight k-member grinding.
I will say that I am happy with my set.

Well these are not the "XS headers" that used to be on Ebay, not sure if everyone in this thread realizes this but these are copies of those. I have the ole XS headers and did not have to cut the drivers side collector. I did dremel the k member on the drivers side some but no big deal.

Friend of mine bought a set a week after I did, and he didn't touch the collector, and it never hits the floorboard, so there definately is some inconsistancy in them. Maybe a bad jig...? I was pleased for the $$$, but if I had a big budget for headers, I would have gone with Kooks lol.
