    M42 Headers

    Anybody see this? Just wondering if anyone had used these before. I doubt they'd make much difference but any hp gain at all would be nice. Anyone?

    those look like original headers off of the M42. i doubt there is any performance gains over the stock ones versus those. i have a spare set if you want them...

      That was one question I asked the seller. Whether or not they were just ported stock headers. Never got a reply. The ad does say something about the diameter being larger. Who knows. Just rather curious about them. I was actually hoping for a dyno readout but I'll bet that's asking for too much!;)

        Seriously doubt there is any power to be made switching to replicas of the stock headers with slightly larger primarys (if that)

            those look exactly like stockers with an amatuer refinish. Notice they look great on the 'easy to reach' area, but the harder to reach parts arent as pretty.
