It sure looks like it. They are the only ones I have seen made that way. To bad they didn't leave that damn egr tube off like on the dyna's tho. I guess that's what a block off plate is for tho.

There probable made by the same Chines sweet shop that is making ALOT of the SS headers on ebay, that SSAutoChrom and like places are selling. Thier idea of R&D is receive and duplicate. 
FWIW, I built a front mount turbo for a 96 TA with a set of SS headers from SSAutoChrome, and they where actually pretty decent headers. 1/2 flanges and 16ga 304SS. I'd buy a set of these if I needed some.

Upon further reasrch it seems that these do not have "true" cats on them. OBX so called cats are straight thru test pipes or resonators as mentioned above. Most of the hiflow units for other vehicles have a core with holes all around it much like a Magnaflow muffler does.
With that said I am still tempted.

The SS Autochrome headers are VERY popular with the F body crowd and are awsome. My Dad has a set on his T/A. Do a search on Tech for "ebay headers". If they ahve a set for my truck, Ill have them!
