    yesterday afternoon i thought i had recived my headers from ssautochrome.com but as i opened the box the headers were not the rihgt style. these are what they looked like. i definetly ordered the right ones and these are not it. i looked at the shipping label and it looks like they bought a set of headers from ebay and then shipped them to me. here are the shipping labels.






    has this happened to anyone before? and also if i wanted to spend 150$ on ebay headers i would have. i didnt spend 250 for them to ship me crappy headers. also does anyone know if ssautochrome has a phone #

    Wow thats shady as hell. With my experience with ssautochrome. Theyre completely negative people and dont know what theyre doing. I have email pictures of them being a$$holes n id never deal with them. As far as a number, paypal gave me one for them n theyd never answer

    Well Doug Duncan...

    If you looked around...

    Not saying that this doesn't suck...but SSAC has been MIA on the header dept. for quite some time now screwing people around.

    So yes, it does sound like something they'd do.

    To make a good thing out of the bad thing...Pacesetter knock-off's aren't HORRIBLE...they just need welding to be a solid header, thanks to the awesome three-bolt flange and the y-pipe collector...it all sucks.

    Lol right, but its a horrible thing when ya could have paid $100 less off ebay n that $100 extra he just spent woulda covered up the welding in the end
