I'm thinking of doing some exhaust upgrading since the pipes on there have lived about long enough. From the pics they look pretty nice.
Let me know what you think.

These look like the same ones, only cheaper.

You will most likely run into fitment/seal/gasket problems. Cheap headers are 9.9 times out of 10 just that, cheap.

i wouldnt do it either for the simple fact those header bolts can easily snap in the block if your not careful, i wouldnt do it personaally, unless i had the engine on a stand and i was rebuilding it

I think the second set has a 3 bolt pattern.
As far as cheap sets go, I have had some bad luck with expensive and cheap headers in the past. It's a crapshoot sometimes.
I have been reading about the Gibson's being some of the best.


Has anyone gone to a full length set-up? That's something else I have been considering. It might be the easiest and best gain.
