Default Group Purchase on headers

Spoke with Nick at Doug Thorley Headers.

Currently have 3 orders for headers.

If we can get 7 more orders we can get a run done.

Anyone else interested?

http://dougthorleyheaders.com/produc...productID/1052

EDIT:

$649 for 10 orders

or

$599 for 15 orders

The headers are here:

http://dougthorleyheaders.com/produc...%20GXP/sfID1/9

Price is $960 but they don't stock them. They only make them in runs of 10 so we need 10 orders just to buy a set.

If I can get a better deal than 960+ S&H then put me down too... I sent DT about 3 emails asking questions about buying their headers.. haven't heard nothing back from them... that was 6 months ago... I am wanting to buy a set of headers..

Thanks.. and let me know what the group price is going to be...... and put me on the list...........

Ok I just spoke with Nick and he is willing to do the following:

$649 for 10 orders.

or

$599 for 15 orders.

That's a lot better than the $960 price.

thats a much much better price! and to think for about 300 more i could have headers (custom 3" downpipe was 287 shipped). then again i wouldn't see much benefit on a basic bolt-on car...though if i did a cam....

Price will be $649.

So including you and Sinisterss that makes 5 orders. Need a minimum of 5 more.

Ask your friends.
