V10 headers for 3v

I was doing a search for shocks for my truck and I came across this

JBA Headers 1670SJT - JBA Headers Cat4ward Headers - Application - SummitRacing.com

I find this interesting. My question, are these headers good quality and will this company stand behind their product. I notice that it has a 3/8 thick flange which I find a little thin. What are your thoughts?

I've used JBA before with good results, but mine were ceramic coated

My thoughts? Headers on a 3V don't add much. The stock manifolds really are pretty darned good for stock to mildy modified engines!
Why put up with the inherant typical issues with headers for so little gain?
(issues: Fit, leaks, rust, cracking, loosening bolts, heat management, etc etc)

I was thinking if headers would solve the exhaust manifold stud problem, then it would be worth it. Unless someone makes a stud or bolt that won't break.
