FleaBay Headers
I was looking for a set of SS headers and came across these, anyone know anything about these? I emailed the seller asking questions about them but have not heard back from him.

I considered some like that because the price is so low, but I read reports in this forum of people discovering that they sit too low under the engine and reduce ground clearance.
I'm in the UK so I wasn't prepared to take a risk with the high shipping cost to try and fight for a return if they didn't work. Your mileage may vary.

If you search the forums for 'ebay headers' you'd find this thread:

It's not conclusive but it sowed the seed of doubt for me.

I had originally bought a set of Hedmans from Summit, and come time to fit them, they wouldn't go! Sent them back for a full refund, no questions asked!
Bought the ceramic coated Hookers, and glad I did!
Buy from a reputable seller. With Jeg's or Summit, returns are easy and fast, no questions asked. The Hedman's I had bought were suppose to be for 68-82 small blocks....well enough said.

The one's n the picture look like a SS version of Flowtech Headers. Cheapies. The painted one's can be had for $90 brand new through any parts store chain. No two sets are the same and fitment is hit or miss.
Spend your money once and buy good ones. I like the Hooker's myself. (I mean the exhaust headers) I had a noticable performance gain from flowtechs to the hookers and fit and finish was MUCH better.
