Nope, hopefully they are back in stock somewhere. Maybe give me something to do this summer, replace my rustastic pacesetters.
Pricing is retarded. Lets face it, there are people running 10's and faster on Chinese turbos, and stainless headers coming out exactly the same at 1/3rd the cost? I think companies need to be honest on how much profit is really made in some of the overpriced products.

Well I finished installing the headers completely yesterday, everything fits awesome. Plug access is good, didnt have any trouble installing or tightening the spark plugs.
Here are a few pics, I think they tuck up nicely without being too close to the floorboard.

These are 3.5" OD on one end and 3" ID on the other, so you can slip them over 3" tubing at the end and weld a V-band flange on the other if thats what you wanna do.
These are 3.5" ID on one end and 3" OD on the other, so they could slip over the header and butt up against 3" pipe to be welded at the other end.
these adaptors are abit thin (probably 18 or 20 gauge steel) but I didnt have any trouble mig welding a thick v-band flange to them or welding them to some 14 gauge exhaust pipe.
There are some stainless adaptors out there you could weld on but I didnt like how the transition looked flow-wise.
