Headers that dont break the bank

Agree 100%. I’ve always used the cheaper headers and they fit just fine. My duster came with headers that had a tight fit on a couple of tubes, but I’ve got the spark plug wire insulators over the wires and have had absolutely no issues with spark plug wires being burnt. A discount brand of headers will outflow stock exhaust manifolds all day long. You can also remove the cheap paint that comes on the discount headers and repaint them with a high heat header paint and cycle them a few times to let the paint cure correctly. Just my two cents on this subject.
Yes and some of these cats act like they've never heard of long reach plug wire boot pliers. lol
