Good Luck with the sale! Someone should buy these and reproduce them in large numbers at a better price.

Yeah. Good luck with that. Material alone was $1300 in mild steel and over $2K in stainless and they took over 35 hours to weld up by hand. Tri-Y headers in this style are not a mass-produceable product.

Somebody must have been taking ALOT of breaks to take 35 hours to weld those up.

I should have been more descriptive. 35 to make. This includes cutting each tubing bend, hand fitting, sanding, and welding. Once they were in the jig and ready to weld, it was about 8 hours total time behind a mask. These were a bitch to make in small production and I can't even imagine this on a large scale.
