I'm putting my first set on my second Camaro. The first only had about 19000 miles on it, but except for the heat discolleration (which I like), there's no reason these wouldn't last a lifetime....what could wear out? I suppose the same could be said about OBX, but one of the posters already made me feel blessed that I made the choice of Kooks. Plus, take a look at the items for sale threads and you'll see used Kooks, American Racing and other headers made in USA selling for around $600-700. I've seen no used OBX headers up for sale so can't say. But, there may never be another problem with another set of OBXs...who knows.

I'm glad the OP is happy with his purchase and that he's making more HP for very little output....good job!
