Hopefully Brian is ok and has no major issues. I lucked out in storm just a big mess in my part of MA.

Any idea if they built the HA headers?

His profile says he checked in yesterday so he should be good. As far as the headers he really hasn't decided yet I believe. Not enough intrest yet.:frown:

I am looking to get the headers in soon. I will keep looking for another option. Bummer I liked the idea that they were going to be Stainless.

Actually we have progress on these. We are doing a passenger side & up pipe. I had to go for 10 sets in order to keep retail on the passenger side under $400.00 & the up pipe under $200.00. They are being built like the TA style factory replacement headers so we wouldn't have to produce a full set. If some one needs a full set we can supply the TA style Driver side. This gives us options & the customer plus keeps the cost down. I think RJC already sent out the flanges to the builder.
We did get nailed pretty hard by the hurricane & just got power back at the shop this morning. So I haven't had much time to check status of the progress. I'll be back on the roof tonight getting loose roofing materials into a 30 yard dumpster.
We lost the Body shop 5 bay roof, the front & side sales area roof,one of our out building roofs & pretty much the building at this point. Ac unit was nailed by roof material as well as having that roof put holes in our existing roofs. Lost a long run of fence when a church tree took that out. A kind neighbor stopped by this morning to let me know we lost a tree in her yard when we had hail & 58MPH winds again last night.
 
At least the family is ok, as for the shop, you've built Buick heaven once, you can do it again Brian. Have a good one buddy.
 
Very happy to hear you're ok Brian. When you nail the actual cost of the header down please post it.:)
 
Let me know when they are ready and I will send you the money. Only concern is, I just put the up pipe on yesterday i bought from you last week. If i buy the new passenger side header its not going to work anymore. Am I out 200 bucks now? Since it is now a 3 bolt flange to the header. Yikes, that is going to hurn my wallet, Brian. O, and btw thanks for all your help with the trunk carpet kit, got it in and it looks good.
 
in my case it's the driver side that cracked but i'd go for full set. Glad to hear you're ok out there!
 
Sure hope headers fit better than his 3" down pipe. For the $675 I was hoping and told it would fit. But not the case. Well if heating and smashing a brand new pipe. Means it fits well then maybe.
 
If anyone follows up with this put me in for a set under $750 ,both sides and the cross-over. Going back to stock is the only option i have now because my pass side is destroyed. All the work trying to go fast now has to be corked. If there is still interest please let me know and where to send $. What ever options the majority decides is fine with me. my kbs are band style and worked fine, but im looking for perfomance over apperance. Thanks for the input and trying to figure something out.

is there a noticable difference on the butt dyno with the downpipe
