Hey Deanna,

You are right, those head side welds are rougher than on Ron's. I still say there is no need for all that weld on the tube side of the flange. If you can find a shot of the other side of those Mad Dogs, you will see what I am talking about.

I am terribly excited to possibly be getting these tri-y's. If I wasn't I would never try to get anyone else to buy them. I am just trying to give constructive comments, that could possible make them even better and faster to make.

Peace.

Sent Pm gearbanger to try & explain some what. Also I guess my wife is a member also. I thought she just had ESP or womans intuition when she talked to e about the headers I guess not.

I showed her those pics of your Mad Dogs about a week or so ago. She got heated because there were complaints about the old welds in 06' but there wasn't a mention about these. She was referring to the welds joining all the tube seems not really the ports. That was just one of the many hypocritical things I was referring to I an above post about a basher. Also I hate being physically threatened for stating the truth. I haven't got the time to meet anyone behind the gym after third grade class, sorry. LLLLOOOOL

I have nothing against Mark at Mad Dog. I have talked with him also in the past & think he has a great product & attitude towards Pontiac's unlike other header Co's I had spoken with. BUT apples vrs apples my wife seems to think if its a non issue in Mad Dogs case & all customers were more than happy with his then my new welds are more than up to par.

Good looking headers you guys! Nice to see the little guy succeeding. I personally bought a set of Hedmans' last summer. First sent the wrong ones for the car and then sent Huslers for 500.00 Cdn. Complete sh*t in the workmanship had about 3 hrs re-tigging flanges and grinding/polishing. Center ports concave in primaries,etc. Sure wished I had of known about you people loved to have given you my business.

My headers arrived at the shop yesterday. I haven't seen them, but they are being test fitted today and then off to get coated. Short timeline so that they are on for the TA Nats. Thanks again Ron.

I have three sets to ship by Fri & they have been notified. These three are all sponsors because I had to have a large amount for the next tubing order & meet the deadline for delivery. The supplier required it that way since Im the only one that they carry my product for.

I will have three sets for owed customers out by the end of next week using the tubes from that order I needed. Larry (he already knows) & two others that I haven't contacted yet. Not until the tubes arrive so that there wont be any problems.

These three sets that are to be out by Fri. have a few improvements not in the design but in the build process. It allows me to lose 2 to 2 1/2 hrs of build time on O-ports & about 45min to 1 hr on D-ports. All while making a better product & reducing the amount of finishing materials I use to make them look nice.

So I'm getting faster & more efficient while dealing with inventory to build them. Since I cant buy one tube at a time.
