W-R "literally" took a set of MSDS headers and copied them. Go find the posts of them asking for volunteers. (here & NECO) IIRC some Cougar guy finally did it for them. This is old news so it's not like anyone is bring up any new "accusations" or "statements" either.
That is why I made the statement they can't even copy things correctly. It is plainly obvious to see the header primary lengths are different. The MSDS headers have tuned primary lengths to best match the pulses from the cylinders. That is why the collector is angled the way it is. They could have given it more side to side clearance & make then easier to build by turning the collector but that would change the length of the primaries.
W-R went the easier route and just turned the collector. "Hence my previous statements"
You get what you pay for...
On top of that I would not put an uncoated set of headers on anything I owned. If you are going to use W-R headers at least have the sensibility to get them coated IMHSFHO.
Also I am all for supporting a Shop that made "half price" headers for our ignored platform when the only other option was the $1250+ SHM headers. Marty also supports Spring Zing (MSDS header set give away) & supports the NECO site. In today's society just call me old fashioned for having some loyalty. I won't argue the price point because the ~$150 difference is a chunk of change (coated vs coated sets)
