Stay away from Mac products. They are absolutely terrible quality.

My mac H-pipe was excellent, better fitting than the bbk h-pipe I had before. Mac fits better to mac H-pipes, and bbk headers fit better to bbk H-pipes.... And for Headers I like my mac headers alot more than I liked my BBk, my bbk headers didnt fit too well to the bbk-h-pipe, it had some issues fitting., but my mac headers had no issues to bolt up to mac h-pipe.

i completely disagree with you. i have a full mac exhaust setup from the headers to the h-pipe and the muffleers. there aint a damn thing wrong with any of it. it all fits right and performs just like anything else out there. i dont know what kind of experience you had with them but mine has been great

to the poster, i would jump on it. thats a good deal

Mac headers fit my e7 heads absolutely perfect. Once the bolts go through the heat cycles and stay tight, there were absolutely no leaks at all. They fit my afrs very tight though. I still can't complain though, they just fight the new heads. Next time the come off it's gonna be longtube time. All my mac stuff is good quality for the price, not bassani, but doesn't command the same price either. Better than that bbk crap I've seen.

I been through my share of mac garbage. I will never buy another thing that has the mac name on it.

I'd rather have stock parts.
