Default Ebay headers??

Found these headers on Ebay. But something looks wierd to me. the collector seems to be pointing perpendicular to the cylinder head. These don't look like they would bolt up to any LT5 that I've seen.

The seller name could be the same fella who sold me some "racing cams" which turned out to be stock.

The only way those things are fitting a ZR1 is if you remove the side vents and dump them out behind the front wheels!

Yes, I asked. Here is the text of my questions:

>>Hi, who makes these headers? I have a '94 ZR-1 that needs headers! How many miles do you figure they have on them? Are any of the tubes dented? Thanks for your time.<<

And his response:

>>I am not sure of the brand because I got them with my zr-1 when I bought it. There is a small indention, but I think it is for clearance. They look good and I am not sure if they have even been run on a car. They look like they have not been run long if they were on a car.
Thanks,
Chris<<


:confused:

Count me out of the running!

I would not say that, he did pull them off ebay.. Maybe he found out he didn't know what he had. If so he did the right thing.
He does have a good rating on ebay.

:iagree: that's right he bought a ZR-1 from karshop that had been torn apart by the previous owner who was going to make it into whatever
the auction that karshop sold the car said the cams you bought were racing cams so Chris is only going off what he was told no real facts
I was looking at buying the ZR-1 off of him for 14K and taking it off his hands but it was going to be for my wife and she said we had to wait so
if anyone wants a 90 with 17000 miles I think he'll let it go for 15K now that the front end is painted

just needs to be put back together.
