That's why I'm asking before I order one. Don't wanna waste the money if they're junk.
I did e-mail a guy who left positive feedback after a purchase. He said they looked pretty good but was still waiting for a y-pipe before he could run them. He also said they bolted up pretty easy without any fitment problems. He had a 99 1500 w/ a 5.2.

Cheap Jap metal. Means it's thin, very very weak steel, not to mention, a poor stainless coat. Most people that install those end up changing them in a few years because they end up rotting out. Let's not forget that awesome glow they produce at night because the metal is so thin, and the heat from the engine is just too much....
Honestly, don't try to make cheap mods.

Those are JBA knock offs made overseas. Junk- do not go with those as they did not include any heat dissipation or expansion joints and, I can tell you that they will leak for sure. Junk- that's what those are.
If you want top of the line headers that are dyno tested and tuned for a 5.2/5.9, go with JBAs. Gibson is your next choice after that but, they are not tuned and are prone to leaking at the interface and are harder to install. Do get the ones with the heat dissipation coating.

Gonna disagree with you there, chief. Please provide a link to JBA's dyno results over Gibson's on a 2nd gen ram.
I did the research before I bought headers. There isn't a better set for a 2nd gen than the Gibsons, or I would have bought them over the Gibsons.
