I have a set for my test stand if you can bolt them to the engine for a test fit. The set I have I had to enlarge 5 out of 6 bolt holes on each side to get them to bolt up. In the car would have been a nightmare.

I tried to get a set fitting on a second gen, I had to round out all the holes and completely cut off the collector section and reposition....a lot of work. But I am pretty sure I got them new for $120 and modifying them allowed me to make them fit perfect so if your up for a bunch of work...go for it. Otherwise send $600+ on a set of Supercomps

It's not like Pontiac headers were never a pain in the ass. I always cut the flange anyhow. Seems like a great bargain for anyone with some basic skills and a torch. Wish I could find the source/ link.

If that’s same ones, price gone WAY up. They were way cheaper before. Like $160-$200 range iirc.

I put the headers on a engine on the test stand over the weekend had to open up the holes more to get all bolts in each side. Again it would be a pita in the car.

The welds, flange and visual build quality is quite good on these, better then most actually but its pretty obvious they never fit them on any car. They probably just bought a crappy set or summit headers copied them somewhat and said good enough lol
