theres been a few writeups on them, with some people saying they're good, and of course some going the other way. if you look up the username 'blindeyed' he has a very detailed thread on them somewhere around here

edit: correction - blindxeyed

i tried to search for the thread but couldn't find it. i know it's there, maybe your sleuthing abilities are better than mine

Try a search for LLP.

I noticed that there is someone selling a set in the Texas FS section.

To me it's one of them "you get what you pay for" things..then again I'd like to see how these are after a couple years of use on people's cars.

If I were you I would get decent headers, it would be a waste of moeny to get these and run the chance that they wouldn't last long then have to go buy another set. I would try LPP as well.

I completely agree. As much of a PITA as it is to install headers on our cars, I would hate to get a set and decide i don't like them, and then have to swap them back out for another set. I went ahead and ponied up the $$ for a set of Kooks and I love them

Make sure that you read each listing on ebay....they can get you real good if you dont pay attention. Some of those cheap headers arent so cheap. Some list it as "header" so you end up getting one header for around $200. Then your forced to buy the second....So when its all said and done, you could have bought a good set of headers without any headache.....
