1) How did this install of the OBX work out?
2) It looks like the OBX collectors are slip fit with clamps, I've had problems with leaks trying to clamp SS pipes in the past.
3) Are the StainlessWorks headers fully welded or some assembly required too?

Trying to work through that $700 decision.

Had a great time at BG in 2012 and want to give special thanks to the FBI, Gordon Killibrew and Mark Haibeck for the fine hospitality for my son and I Friday night.
i would take a long look at the headers that corey henderson makes . i have a set on my 90 zr1 and a set of stainless works on my 92 the obx are exactly like them .the obx/stainless works made 17 less rwhp on my 92 . i found this out by switching the headers off my 90 to my 92 . coreys headers pipe lengths are between 22in to 24 in where the stainless works/ obx lengths are from 10 in to 22 in . i used the same dyno for both tests and allthough it was months between the 2 tests .i can feel the difference and at the drag strip gained 2.5 tenths and 1.7 mph by switching .coreys product is first cabin and isnt that much more than the obx considering that they come coated .jmho
