DEC headers are great and reasonably priced..call them up and they may be able to make you exactly what you want

Why do they list car and trucks separately?

I understand the idea of the motor sitting deeper into the truck but if it dumps out forward whats the big deal?

I ordered a set yesterday at Noon and they we here today when i got home. I specifically told the guy about my other set of headers that crap out exhaust gaskets (warped) and asked him about possible warranty. He said "as long as you tell me the right motor, they will fit"

Took them out of the box .045 dip in both of them? WTH, seriously

Yup, it looked like a plasma cut plate for the flange. After all the welding it looks like they went over it with a flap disc and shipped it. Didn't even bother to clamp them up and dust them off flat.
