Default headers

I tried to search and could not find anything on these headers so I thought I would ask. Also I know you get what you pay for and if sounds to good to be true it usually is. That being said, does anybody have any more info on these headers? Or on this company?

Don't know about the headers, but if you search the Transactions forum you will find a lot of negatives regarding the vendor.

I would not buy any headers at that price point for a c7. They are likely very poor quality and will have fitment issues.

You get what you pay for, stick with Kooks or ARH....that's my opinion

First off stay away from Corvette Mods as others stated
Second those are cheap Chinese eBay headers , they are not long tubes they are mid length
if you are going to go thru all the trouble to put headers on, go with Long Tubes and get the max benefit

You start by saying you know that you get what you pay for... And then you're trying to talk yourself into headers because they're cheap. They are cheap for a reason and you will regret being cheap.

Buy quality and you won't regret it.

The "system" doesn't even have a name? Hardly a good sign. You know going in they are a cheapo Chinese import. If not for these specifically, there are other lower-tier header threads here and invariably there are fitment issues. However, that said, if made to fit they usually seem okay, apart from an occasionally warping flange or some such... as best I can recall, now.

(btw, if they are all you can afford, you are far better off leaving the OEM in place and not worrying about it)
