Default Melrose Headers

What if anything does the forum know about the 30yr company Melrose t Top Inc Headers. They are ceramic coated and claim the typical 35-40 HP gain. They have been around a while and delt with Vette a long time but have not seen them mentioned in the forum. LG, Dynatech etc but there are more out there and the same or smilar specs and dimensions. Any thoughts?

Dave made a post here a while back. I personally prefer longer primaries (ie LG or Dynatech), but the quality looks great

Hey, I have a car waiting on a set can I have those haha. Well I guess I may be the first to provide the Dyno info. Mine were shipped out yesterday and will be installed with a re-tune and dyno after that the same day later this month. I think they are real nice and from experience with my other car, jet coated are the only way to go. Hopefully I will see at least 20 HP increase. I just had the car on the Dyno a month ago so I will know exactly what the increase is and will post it. Thanks to all for the feedback and nice pic.
