    Yes, but most exhaust shops will fab one for cheaper than that and weld it up. I got one done on my 97 GT for $25. just sayin...

    Do you plan to mod further than just a ubend delete?

    If so, dont buy it.

    Then wait.

    Dont spend money on one thing if in a short time you will just toss it aside and dont use it.

    nope headers get rid of the ubend. if you plan on getting headers, screw the ubend delete now.

    Correct.

    If you buy SSAC headers, which are the same as these. They come with a catless down pipe with a section for an aftermarket cat converter that you would have to buy seperate.

    You dont want those.

    Those are junk knock offs and more than likely wont fit.

    Buy SS Auto Chrome headers for 225 shipped to your doorstep and you wont regret it.

    Also pick up a few band clamps and RTV to help them seal real good.

    I have those headers, they were under the name Speed daddys as the off brand name, same company.

    They go all the way back to catback flange.

    Ive had them for 11 months. No problems.

    They are good for the money. And will work for what you will need them for.
