No personal experience with these headers, but from what I've read, they are a quality product, and a good design. In case you missed it, I want to make you aware that these are not stainless steel headers. If you are using these on your street driven vehicle, you will probably want to get the ceramic coating and if you want the AIR tube connection, that is also an additional cost. Even with those costs factored in, they are still reasonably priced.
I do have a set of Melrose spark plug wires, and they are quality, if that is any indication.

I have also heard/read a number of very positive comments about Melrose over the years.

We powdercoated the aluminized midpipes to match the headers when they got here.....looks much nicer that way........not that 'pretty' on the underside of a racecar matters but when your owner/driver is a woman........nuff said.......LOL
