Maybe. Ebay headers can be hit or miss. Also, it doesn't say what kind of stainless they are made of.

Without going in to a ton of detail, 304 isn't as good as say 321. 321 is better in high heat applications. Also, 304 can rust.

thanks brett. i guess fitment is the biggest issue because they cost just as much as pacesetters

There are a lot of unknowns with those ebay headers. If I had to choose between the two, I would go with what you know would work, the Pacesetters. You can always put something on the Pacesetters to protect them.

ceramic will last a LOT longer a car that is not exposed to the elements.

if you are driving in the rain though, heat + water is gonna take the life right out of any header that isnt stainless. ceramic included. So if you are driving in the rain all the time either get stainless or just live with the fact that they are going to rust and will eventually need replacement.

dont plan on doing anything but nice weather driving that helps alot

[JoeliusZ28]

no prob. for what its worth my car has seen rain maybe 3 or 4 times in 5 years and mine are still almost completely rust free. The worst rust was caused by the AC condenser dumping condesation on one of the primaries.

air conditioning? whats air conditioning

[JoeliusZ28]

yea.... ive been questioning mine's existence for a long time now too.

Get them uncoated and just use some high temp paint of POR-20, if they get unbearable down the road you can have QC coatings ceramic coat them. I doubt they will rust through completly anytime soon.
