Default OBX Headers

Any ever try these?

Looks very similar to stainless works but about 1/2 the price.

I bought those about eight years ago. The headers were well made and fit was close, I had to use a round file to dress a couple of holes before the bolts would line up. I used better gaskets and clamps. The extensions didn't line up on one side so I had to cut and weld one piece. I welded flanges to the extensions and to my stock exhaust so I could connect them and easily remove the exhaust for clutch or transmission work. Spark plugs are easily accessible on the driver side from the top. Passenger side plugs are easy from underneath. They are a good deal if you can do a little fabrication/welding yourself. I am happy with mine.

I know this is not for a LT1 but I like it better and you can call to order. They have the bosses there so no work required

They are hit and miss and when it's a miss it's usually a big one. Chinese junk is the consensus on these.....
