Default Ebay Longtube Header Supplier

I have been reading everyone’s threads about the longtube headers, and i am going to purchase a set. I am looking for some feedback about the suppliers, is one better than the other? There are four different ebay suppliers, Speed Daddy, Dna Motoring, Zpeed Starz, and Proauto luxury. Are there differences between the products?

I bought mine from DNA Motoring, Fast shipping headers looked and fit great. all i had to order was some stainless Band Clamps from Summit racing to finish the install off right ( the clamps that come with the kit are junk)

Don't think that there's a difference between the suppliers. they all look the same to me. but i got mine from DNA Motoring the install was pretty good.

just check the feedback on ebay. Anyone in high 90% is more than likely going to come through without a snag.
I know 2 people that have purchased Speed Daddy headers for $250 and so far have had no problems with them other than eventually turning purple due to heat and being chrome.

So the F-body headers will work on the truck? I have a GMC 4x4 with 6.0. I emailed Speed daddy to see if they had anything that would work, but still waiting on a response.

Dont think they will work on a 4x4 because of front driveshaft.

Kooks F-body headers fit trucks, not sure about the OBX style though...actually not sure if even the Kooks will fit 4x4's...

Was just wondering because most everything I see for the 4x4 trucks are mid-lengths. I found one set, don't remember the brand, but they were like $1300!
