Are these headers any good?
Hi all,
I'd like to get some shorty headers without spending $250+ and I came across these on ebay.

Anyone have these on their trucks? I can't find much info about the company but their products look pretty good. Do you think they're worth it? Thanks in advance.

if you need egr these have a port, they also sell others without egr (g9045) .....good price too, heard some gripe about summit due to leaks, cant say personally though....personally would rather deal with summit if need be, but ya gotta admit, that stainless is pretty sharp

Stainless will change colors on you after a while due to the heat. Purple I think was the color.
Painted will eventually lose the paint. It will fall off due to heat, and you're left with stainless that will (if they haven't already) changed color.
Ceramic coated are, IMO, the only way to go with headers.

I would stay away from them due to the apparent grade of stainless steel. You can see where the steel has blued severely around the welds, usually this is indicative of a low grade stainless steel. It'll probably rust out on you sooner than a higher grade of stainless.
Also, without having seen them installed I can tell you that I've never seen a set that loops as big as those do off the #7 and #8 exhaust ports. it might cause issues installing spark plugs or clearing plug wires. Can't tell you for sure without seeing them installed.

I have them on my truck , They work great. But like squirrels said , it does make it hard to do the last spark plug but it can be done. Id say well worth the price.
EDIT: They are OBX Headers.

. Also, would you pay $55 to ship a pair of $140 headers?.
