Default WTB: OBX Headers

Hello Gang

I am looking for 2-3 sets of OBX headers. Before I am going to buy them from another source I wanted to ask if anybody have a set, new or used, and want to sell.
The headers have to be send either to Lousiana or Georgia.

Contrary to the opinion of some people I like the OBX's. A pity is the issue with the tube of cylinder no 1, but it can be solved.
The OBX's are in my opinion better manufactured than the SS Headers. By the SS I dislike the tube entries at the flanges. They are a source for useless turbulences.

In my upcoming 438 LT5 I will try the OBX headers and share my experiences.

I am still looking for 2-3 sets. New or used. A good chance for those who have a new/used set and regrett the purchase. Time to consider about a sell for a fair price.

I am interested in hearing about the fix for the OBX tube for cylinder 1 and the results from your testing. I am in the market, or will be soon, for headers.

Craig,
I will inform you with pleasure because it's my goal to make the unbelieveable LT5 better and stronger.

PS. BTW: End on November I plan to go to Miami South Beach.

Well depending on when you are here I might have a special opportunity for you to view some really choice cars at a charity event. Here is a quick example.

Big stuff happening friday and saturday here. Dodge is bringing in a Hellcat Challenger to run against in F16 in a 1/2 dragrace. Road and Track is filming and writing an article. Lots of exotics and supercars in attendance as well taking pictues with jets. I will represent our ZR-1's very well.
