Good, because he sucks at building Dports. Not only did it take him two tries to get the first set of headers for my 73 correct back in 2010, it took him 6 months to build a second set for me earlier this year. Even though I sent back to the old pair for him to mimic, he said he had a better design to get all the pipes on the inside of the rail and this new pair would fit better than the previous. My request was to just mimic the set I knew worked.
When the new set finally arrived, it had the wrong size collector. Had to have him send collectors. Also, the new set wasn't stepped like the old pair was. And as far as fit goes, if he hitting the mini starter, both motor mounts, the control arm box on the drivers side, and not even being close to lining up with the X pipe width is fitting, then he was on target.
Over $700 wasted on a set of headers I cant use, have no idea what they fit, and cannot return .
He told me he was getting out of Pontiac headers because he could never find two cars that were ever the same. Funny, all of the out of the box headers I've ever bought for any of the 5 1973 LeMans/GTOs I've owned, all worked fine.
What a jerk. |
