This was back a year ago in August 2005 when I couldn't wait for these Tri-Ys any longer...called Doug's directly...had them here in a week...coated...fits great...quite happy with them and was able to salvage a little driving time from last year.

You guys were told that orders are being filled 2-3 weeks from placement? How is that possible when some of us have been waiting forever? I paid for mine on Sept. 9, 2005 and have not received them yet!

I E-mailed Ron the other day about pricing and availability on a set of headers for my new engine build, Still haven't heard anything....and after reading this, It'll be COD or Doug's.

After waiting 15 months and hearing mine were going to ship in a week numerous times, I bough a set of Doug's. Great fit, look much better than Ron's and my reverse/steering lockout linkage still works!

I actually was a little disappointed in the look of the welds on the tri-ys from the pictures. They are definitely not the quality of weld I was hoping for. I talked to Ron (about a year ago) and asked him if he was tigging the tubes and he said that the tubes were going to be mig welded. I was pretty disappointed at the time and it looks like my fears were accurate. From the pictures, those welds look like somebody stuck the tubes together with caulk. I hope if I ever get my headers they look better than that. I am at 19 months myself and I can't even get a call. The last time Ron talked to me was February. I would have to see it to believe it if Ron is delivering anything in 2-3 weeks. And if that is the case, I think it is pretty crappy. "It would be nice to see some of Ron's supporters provide a bridge loan so he can properly fund his business. He has a good product, but like any fledgling business with a labor intensive product, he needs to get established before economies of scale kick-in which would turn the corner towards profitability." Yeah, I gave Ron a interest free $700 loan 19 months ago myself. |

Doug's make some fine headers and I'm glad that you are happy with them and get to enjoy your car. Now have some class and go away. John
