So no headers! I'm tired of rewelding my S&S headers. It's not that bad, but I just hate rework, I could be working on something else.

I am in, I have a GS400 so as long as the IMF is able to I will buy.

I had a similar situation with Twin turbo dumps as they were custom fabbed. Came out great the guy was in Australia and mainly did it for soarers not supras group buys helped both parties. I would like headers to increase the performance and would rather pay for quality than for welding later.

I take it you had the original 1st gen headers right? I have not heard of any cracking with the second gens.

Since PPE purchased the jigs for these and have indicated that they will be continuing production with possibly some modifications we will have to see what is that result. Personally I would pay more for USA built anything vs import IF THE QUALITY is at least equal.

Hard to say and I have not asked recently.

Probably haven't had enough inquiries to light the fire.

Yes, first batch. I was cool with the first crack and even a second one, but now on the third one
I'm just going to reinforce every weld this time, hofully that works.

I should have waited for reviews, but I was so happy to find headers, I just jumped right on it when they became available. Oh well, ish happens!

This is why I picked up one of the last sets of 2ng gen S&S from PPE.

When I spoke to PPE, they said their V8 application would maybe be a 2010 event. I just couldn't wait. I still have about 1,000 miles to go before my next service appointment with Dynamic for install.
