New guy header question

Has anyone ever used the summit brand headers for 82-91 camaro that list for $79.50. If so how well did they fit and were they constructed well?

I've read on this board from a guy who bought a pair through Summit. The guy needed a y-pipe and the salesman on the phone told him he needs the Flowtech y-pipe because Flowtech is who makes the headers for Summit. It's what they in the retail business call "private label".

The Flowtechs are only 1 1/2" to 2 1/2", so don't expect to make much more over 320-330HP out of them.

They're great for low end grunt though.
