RE: bbk header finish bad
i wasn't impressed with them either. we installed some on my buddies LX, and looky here, not even 2 months later, RUST SPOTS EVERYWHERE! ...i mean my MAC cost half as much and have just started to have surface rust now after 2 years. you got quite a deal on em' though, can't really complain i guess.

What are the specs? Shorty Unequals Non Ceramic right? Basically the cheapest they had? I spent $350 on my Equal Length Ceramic BBK Shoritesand they are perfect [&:]. I guess you get what you pay for? Send them back and ask for another pair, summit is real good about returns, good luck.

The BBK L/Ts we bought for our car were very nice. They were ceramic and they were each individually wraped in bubble wrap. They were wrapped 2 times and there wasnt a scratch on them. Needless to say my dad wanted to keep them that way so we put y-shirts over them during installation and we didnt scratch them. They are almost a year old and they still look brand new. Granted we only drive it to shows and a cruise every once in a while but we run the dog **** out of when we do.

i have bbk shorties and they were like that new. i just helped them out a little with a burring bit i keep telling everyone to look into the pypes brand headers but i guess no one can hear me over this darn computer screen.

it seems like bbk has very inconsistent quality, some people have good luck with their headers and ssi intakes and other people say that they have had nothing but problems with their products

I had bbk shorties and longtubes. Theheaders have those scuff marks from the mandrel bender. The chrome headers just have a thin plating to keep them from rusting in the box, its not ment to last through heat cycles. I've found macs quality to be much worse especialy on there mid pipes where you have to rebend the tubing to get it to match up with factory headers or even there own headers.
