I picked up a set of stainlessworks headers for $200.....one was damaged and I later found out the flange was bent. In calling stainless works, they advised me that one header would be $500.00.

I was wondering if the OBX header was the same size primary and collector as the Stainlessworks?

Thanks

I think the OBX are smaller IIRC. $700 for SW headers still ain't bad.

OBX primaries are same as Stainlessworks - 2".
Collector size is the same also. However, because OBX has fake bullet cats behind the collector, runners are bit shorter.
I had an opportunity to lay Stainlessworks and OBX next to each other. Runner bends/shaping are near identical.
However, if you already have one Stainlessworks and need to spend only $500, that would be a smart way to go.

It Depends if you have the factory connect or performance connect option on the SW header. The factory connect option looks to be close to the same as the OBX. The Performance connect tubes and collector are longer.
