very decent headers for the money..... they have a good nickel plate that dont rust either.... might not be the best for heat but they will look good for a very long time..... i bought some BBKs about 10 years ago and the person i sold them to hasnt had any problems out of them and they still loook good

I ordered a set of BBK's back in the day, and when I got them they were absolute pieces of ****. Welds were terrible, and there were places you could actually see daylight through them. I called BBK and told them about it, and even offered to drive to their shop to exchange them, and the whole issue was a clusterfuck. I ended up shipping them back where I purchased them, and ended up getting things resolved after several days.
