I Think he means on the ZR-1.

A member here bought them and was doing the install on his Z.

You are exactly correct. You would figure by now the headers would be on the Z or sent back. I'd like to know how they worked out......

Default Re: Did the OBX headers fit or what???

Just received the set I ordered last weekend, and they look like a really good quality header. They took great care in packing them, and included header gaskets with them. The welds are all very clean, and the individual exhaust ports look like they've been cleaned up by hand. Even if they are quite as good as SW, for the price they are a very nice product, and have to be WAY better than the stock 91 manifolds that are on my car right now.

Have to get them coated, and then take the car down to Corey's so, I probably won't have mine on for 3-4 weeks, but I'll make sure to post Corey's impressions when I get it back.

you're going to powder coat your headers?

Thanks and look forward to see what "you" think of them. The fit I'd like to hear what Cory finds out.

Default Re: Did the OBX headers fit or what???

The Tranny is in my drive shaft is rebuild, I started on some beam plates, and I removed the old factory headers(That was a BI#%CH). But I have not touched the OBX headers yet for a test fit, we have entered our heavy part of our autocross season and I have been swamped with my track cars repair and adjustments.
