Default Just another header question

upon discovering that our ebay headers are nowhere to be found (at least not for the $334 that i found them for last time) i started searching other options. Saw where some F-body headers fit our trucks, but i still wasn't gonna throw down $400+, so i thought maybe the F-body guys have ebay headers as well, and they do. Most of ya'll probably already knew that, but i haven't spent much time on tech lately so i was clueless. So that brings me to my question, has anybody tried to put the ebay camaro headers on their trucks? i searched for quite a bit and didn't find anything, but never know, i may have overlooked something.

Chevy Camaro Firebird Pontiac Trans Am LS1 5 7L V8 Stainless Exhaust Race Header | eBay

Same headers are also on the dnamotoring website for like $43 more.
If my truck wasn't on daily duty right now, i would be very tempted to be a guinea pig if nobody else has tried it yet.

For real. Im very tempted to order them and try them out and if they don't work, sell them off to some local f-body guys. Just would hate to take the manifolds and stuff off my truck and the headers not work and then have to order another set of headers because i cut everything up to take the manifolds off.

It looks like the ebay headers are identical to the flowtech headers

Flowtech 11134-1 FlowTech Headers

May have to order a set and try em out. If theres too many issues i'll just try to sell em off.

I've got a set of used Dynatechs (w/hump), complete with Ypipe and cats for $500.

I just need to get the Ypipe and cat apart so I can package them.

i went ahead and ordered a set of these. Just got done breaking all the exhaust bolts loose on my truck so if they don't fit i can throw everything back on. I'll keep the thread updated.

Subscribed. If they do fit, i'll be looking for some 1-7/8" ebay headers.

Yeah i'm hoping these are just a super cheap alternative to pacesetters or the other ebay headers minus y pipe. I had planned to go true dual anyway so these will work better anyway, IF they fit without too much hassle.
