Default Anybody else get incorrectly built headers from Stainless Works?

Just wondering because I did. Stainless Works put the passenger side AIR assembly plate/connection on the wrong tube. I'm going to call them Monday morning and I hope they can turn a fix around pretty quick since I waited almost two months for the headers.

They're the wrong year. Early and late models have different locations for the AIR tube. I just spliced my tube when I swapped headers from my 97 to my 02.

Andy,

Where should I splice the tube? On my model, the tube is aluminum (for obvious reasons) where it connects to the header pipe.

Thanks,
