Ebay Longtubes?

Hey guys, know first let me start by saying im not trying to cut corners of put cheap stuff on my car! So today was looking around ebay and seen these headers for the ls1, Im curious if anybody has ever used them, searches didnt yield to much info. They look good and are a damn good price. Just curious on the quality and fitment, as I would be the one installing these in my garage with a mix of light air tools and hand tools, and a friend or two to help.

Heres the link, check it out! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...Q5fAccessories

They look good and the price is great for stainless. But what will you do for a Y-pipe? There's no garantee that any Y out there will fit these. So that means custom/pricey? Or custom dual exhaust.

I have some on mine, they fit fine. They mated up to a pacesetter y-pipe and they work just fine with the TSP true duals I have now.

I had a set that i couldn't install. The EGR connections were all turned the wrong way and the collector on the driver's side hit the floor board before all of the bolt holes lined up. I could have had them bent but the EGR stuff was enough for me to just turn away from them. A friend of mine is using them in an LSX powered drag car with a modified frame. They are working well for him.

FWIW, I've heard as many good experiences with them as I've heard bad.

hmmm.. Man what should i do then? just stick with pacesetters as I was going to do. Only reason I was interested in them was because they are stainless and look really good. But because im gonna be installing these myself in my garage on my back I want something that is going to fit in nicely and I dont like the idea of hacking up my car by cutting tabs and notching the k member. Any more people used these or any stainless ebay headers for that matter that fit nicely?
