ONLY PEOPLE THAT complain about headers are
1) people that bought el cheapo set
2) used el cheapo gaskets
3) don't need them(stock motor) so the extra work to get to spart plugs is a pain
4) people that don't buy stage 8 locking bolts to keep the bolts from backing off.
5) people that think they are gonna get that 30-40hp boost without reworking the timing advance curve and carb tuning..

thoses that under stand spending a little more up front (good set and copper gaskets, stage 8 bolts), and take the time to retune the engine after install.
enjoy the new found power they will give you..

but like others said if your engine is a 200hp slug they are a waste of money
