What kind of headers are these? The auction states they sell retail for $275. That sounds awfully cheap for headers. I'd coat them prior to installation. It really does knock down the heat dissipation.

They are 68440 Hedmans and can be bought from Jegs or Summit for about $125.

I really hated being the bearer of that news but someone would have said it. That seller sells those on there perpetually. He should change his ebay name to "headersforlessthanwhatISAYtheyretailfor "
