I am looking at a set of stainless headers from e bay! Price is good cheap $130. Any one ever use a set from e bay or have issues with stainless steel headers? According to the description they will fit my truck.
Any pros and cons about them?

Thanks

How thick are the flanges? Are they the right port design?

With cheap headers you stand a good chance of getting leaks. If you have a good set of cast iron manifolds they'll give you just as good performance for a street vehicle, and won't have to chase leaks.

Got an e mail sent out to supplier. I am going to guess 3/8th. But pictures are not always the same as what you get! Port shape is correct.

Thanks for the tip I will let you know what i find out.

I've used a couple of the "off shore" stainless headers with good luck but I choose a set that looked well built. The description said 3/8" flanges etc. I've also bought a couple of sets that I knew I was going to cut apart and remake into what I wanted.
