They don't mention if they are also coated on the inside, which is crucial. They are conveniently turned over in the pics so you can't see inside. I'd be cautious, you usually get what you pay for when it comes to ceramic coatings.

3/8" flange is the same thickness as BBK header flanges. Mine haven't warped. I'd say go ahead get 'em if you want. :SNSign:

EDIT: Headers are pretty worthless without the rest of the exhaust being replaced. The 4 catted H-pipe is the real flow restrictor in the exhaust setup. If you aren't doing the whole exhaust at once I highly suggest starting with replacing the H-pipe.

I agree, I think I'd take a chance on them for the price.

For that price i would try them also. Worse come to worse put them back on Ebay
To me they look like a MAC header with a Flange.

Don't know which headers, but:

Good and fast shipping but problem with the fit of headers. Made fit.

Reply by biggjdogg: Everyone that has ever installed headers know they are 95% time not direct fit?

Customer service looks a little "iffy" as well.

Sweet.... definately keep us posted. Do you have a rough time frame on when you plan to install them? I'm sure adding the Kenne Bell will bring rav header results.

I had planned on buying the Summit shortys, these would be a lot cheaper. Really interested to see the quality of the welds on the inside of the flange. Seen a pair similar at a Street Machine Nationals tent last year. The welds were a little poopy. Rewelding would mean getting them coated again.

I just received the headers today, all looks good so far. The header install sheet says WYSCO on it, http://www.wysco.com/autoparts/autoparts-04.asp

this is what pulls up on Wysco...


anyway here are a few pics, Welds all look good, Plating looks to be nice and thick,Flang is VERY thick and straight, and the inside looks to be coated also, I only found one area I didn't like a small ding on one tubes, It may of been from shipping but I doubt it cause headers were packaged pretty solid
