Hey guys. I've lurked here for a while and finally registered. You guys really know your stuff! I finally know where to go for good info. I'm the only guy I know with a Corvette! Everyone I know runs older stuff. When I beat 'em they cry.

Anyway, anyone know anything about the Vanderzangen (I think that's the name!) headers? Check 'em out on http://www.vetteexhaust.com. The price is right, but I think I'll save up for the Hooker Super Comps unless someone can recommend them. Also, I don't think they have provisions for emissions.

stay away from him!!!

He has a really bad reputation on this board. He burned a member Fastguy for a few hundred and the system he sent him completely didn't not fit the car. Look at his ebay feedback, you'll see.

Thanks, Scorp. I kinda figured it wasn't good. You get what you pay for.

I have not heard of this guy but if he has screwed someone over then I would certainly steer clear

scorp508

I'll let fastguy tell the story, but her certainly is NOT the only person screwed by this guy.

As Brian said...stay away...That guy was nailed to the cross on this forum not to long ago.

do a search in the archives and you'll get the whole story. :nonod:

I don't remember all the details, but I do remember reading the thread. Pretty ugly! Don't do it!!! :nonod:

BTW - Welcome to another MN Vette owner!! I'm just a little north and east of you in Ham Lake.

I would recommend the TPiS headers. I have them and they install easily even for a relative novice like me. I did it with the car on jackstands in my garage. Plus, you are close to them. Their garage is in Chaska. They are very helpful and they know their stuff. It's worth the extra money to avoid the headaches.

Wow, I just checked out the webpage...that stuff looks like total junk!! I would hate to try and make that crap fit on a car...

Ha Ha. The Corvette Forum is not on thier Vette Links page. That right there should tell you to stay away from them.

You most often get what you pay for. You might check out JBA's, a little expensive but darn good headers. Go in fairly easily and ,BTW, get them ceramic coated for less heat problems.

What ever you buy, buy them uncoated and have them shipped directly to Jet Hot.

I have a set from TPIS that came coated. Tomorrow they are going to Jet Hot to be recoated right. Jet Hot is doind a group purchase right now for 30% off.

I had a set on my Z28 that were Jet Hot coated. They looked great for years and still looked great when I sold the car.

OK, go grab a beer and some popcorn and read this.

I am using the Hooker SC 2149's from Summit, $449. Easy to install, still look good after four months.

All they are are Hedman Hedders...I bought a pair off someone on Ebay. They fit OK, but they're nothing special. Also, there is no pre-tapped O2 bung :smash:
