Whose are they? Is the picture looking at them from below or above? Do you have a picture of them installed?

I just got them a few days ago and lastnight bolted them with two bolts to the heads for a test fit,I will get pictures or video of them on in the next couple of weeks.

That picture is on my floor me standing above them.

I saw these on ebay last summer and wanted to try them but ran out of money,just type in hemi truck headers and they pop right up,think mi e came from a user named Kospeed or something close.

What I was trying to find out was the orientation of the pipes. Are they right side up or upside down in pic vs. how they mount to engine...Sorry!

From above on the passenger side,you really can not see anything usefull but just below the hard curve in the pipe in the middle is a spot that just touches the frame,one dimple will fix it.



No picture of the drivers side but looking close it is touching the stud for the motor mount,slight dimple or grind that stud and all is good.


Passenger side head




Drivers side head





Nice thing is,if your using those tiny truck manifolds and switch to these your exhaust will bolt right up :)

What brand are these? How far below the bottom of the heads would you say the header drops at its lowest point?

Dont know if thats good or bad but they fit,claim to be stainless and under $240.
"It depends."

Typical off-shore welded by 12 yr olds in a factory in China, wildly varying in quality. OBX tends to be "better", but some of their stuff just doesn't cut the mustard, either in the initial quality or longetivity.

Really interested in seeing how these hold up and done installed pics. If they are working for the Dak guys they have to be able to fit my 98 ram.

I tried pacesetter long tubes on my 98 ram when I put the Hemi in but they were a no go. I figured my ram being bigger than the daks they might work but I was wrong.

I am certain you didn't get the Schumacher engine mounts because I only have like 3" of clearance between the exhaust flange on the head and the upper A-arms front and back, on passenger side that is, the driver's side has all kinds of room. I have done a lot of research and it seem as though the Dodge Ram JBA shorties will work but I have not tried them yet as they only have the 1 5/8" primaries and I want at least 1 3/4" primaries and a bigger collector as well.
