Very nice.


When you have them in your hands and are prepared to make the new thread for them, do you think you could get some detail shots like what plug access looks like with them bolted up, straight edge layed across the flanges, close up shots of the welds, etc.?


Oh and, my vote is that charging the same price for these as you do for your LSx headers sounds fair.

Yeah plug access on 5 & 6 looks like it could suck, hopefully not too bad. Are the tube entrances D-shaped or circular?

....they look awesome by the way

If I didn't know any better those look like the Borla shorty headers I once owned but they just made them Long Tubes. I still want a set too though.

The design looks pretty much identical to my Kooks. I can't see the flanges, but the routing of the primaries appears to be exactly the same.

You know, you're right. Tube routing is exactly the same.

Anyone know what the plug access is like on the kooks?...just trying to get an idea.

Again, are the tube entrances/primaries D-shaped or circular?

I know some of the plugs on my car weren't accessible with a ratchet & spark plug socket after I installed my headers. The SLP socket would have come in handy. We used a short 1/2" drive socket and some vice grips on some of the plugs, which is pretty much the same principle as the SLP socket.

If those are a copy of the Kooks design, could there be any legal ramifications?

Unless Kooks has trademarked their design, I don't see how they could do **** about it. That would be like K&N suing Moroso or vise versa because the two CIAs are almost exactly the same.
