I think that's the same company that made the headers for a buddies dad's mustang. They actually fit really well and the bends and welds look really good too. But the reason why there that cheap is the stainless they use is a really low grade, in time they will rust. But hey there 140.00 headers... lol

The ports openings and bolt paterns have never changed. I had a 360 out of a 98 in my 76 power wagon and the headers for the 76 bolted right up to the 98 with no modifications.

dodgeguy97...do you mean the header pipes are blocking from tightening up the bolt?
how long have you had them on?did you use there gasket and bolts?did you fasten them up to the stock y-pipe?

I believe stainless will change colors, yes.

The best headers, IIRC, are of the ceramic coated variety.

i would say that they would discolor.but to me that doesnt matter.and i agree they are pretty cheap and you usually get what you pay for.i wish they said what guage of stainless they use on the pipes.but there is probably a reason why they donnt say.

i know that ceramic headers are the best but i am no wanting to drop 3-4-5 or even 600$ on a set.i was hoping that there were a couple people who had tried them. i might just bite the bullet and try them. i would just hate to do the work and them leak bad or only last a yr.you can get painted ones for about 250$, but i figured stainles would last a little longer.
