Default Tri-Y Headers from Get Bent Fabrication?

Link to headers

I just thought I would post these for discussion since I ran accross them on the net. They look too expensive for what they are to me.

They look nice, but as you mentioned, way too much jack for what they are (not even stainless)...cut that price in more than half and maybe they'd be worth it.

Thorley has been building them for 50 years and charges a lot less. Simple mathematics.

The Impala guys love these guys Tri Y headers...I have emailed him back and forth a few years ago when he was thinking of trying to make a Tri Y header for the LT1 Fbody(which I have as well). He emailed me and said he couldn't do it after some research and fitting.

Don't count them out as a possible alternative. Just my .02. IF you think I need change back let me know!
