Found myself with a spare set, thinking about selling them. They're stainless and ceramic coated. I've also got a pair of cats with flanges that will bolt up to the stock H-pipe.

Got company, grandkids are visiting, no time to fool with it right now. I was just throwing it out there for discussion at the moment. Getting ready to clear out the garage and move some leftover MM parts.

If you have this many people that want them, ebay would be a logical choice instead of playing the "dibs" game and figuring out price...I never like dealing w/ who calls what when selling something...

"dibs" was never called! The man said give somebody a "shot"... It's up to the seller if he decides it's an open market on what he has. The question was "How much are these worth"!!!

I would prefer to sell them to a member here instead of a stranger on ebay, and I hate paying the ebay service charges.

I didn't really put them out for "dibs", but if anybody wants to make offers I'm fine with that. If the offers suit me, then I'll sell them. Otherwise they'll just sit in the garage since they ain't eating anything and I don't really need the money. I don't deal with lowball offers very well, I would prefer to just not sell.

And Dom is really the only person who has made a realistic offer anyway (by PM, of course). I'll decide Saturday, first free day I've had in 4 weeks!

Here are some pics. As stated before, they are stainless Kooks, 1-5/8" primaries w/2.5" collectors and 3-bolt flanges, ceramic coated.

The EGR fitting is non-stainless on these headers, as are the flanges on all the Kooks headers. This was common on some versions of the Kooks headers. In addition, the EGR fitting had been welded shut when I got this set, but I drilled it back open and everything worked fine when I used them for the past 20k miles or so. Use anti-seize when installing, as it was a b**ch to get the EGR tube loose when I took them out.

I cut the flange on the driver's side so it is easier to install them, no need to remove the dipstick tube!

There is a dent in the passenger's side, this is the second set I have seen with a dent in that same spot. Must be too close to the frame or something?

Here is the whole setup, headers and cats. The cats are Magnaflow 2-1/2" high flow stainless cats and they are flanged to connect the Kooks headers to the stock H-pipe. They have the O2 sensor bungs installed. I put header wrap on them because the insulation under my car was drooping down and touching them. Easy bolt-in installation!
