Do these SFCs look strange?



I am looking to buy these SFCs but the bends look a little strange to me. What do you guys think. They are going to be going onto my 89 IROC. I do not have headers or any crazy exhaust. It is just a mandrel bent 2 3/4" pipe. I have talked to one of my friends and he agrees that these look weird. What do you guys think? Thanks.

No idea what the brand is that is why I am posting it here because I do not want to buy them and have them not be right for my car.

Unless they were really cheap, I wouldn't risk it...

Those are pretty crazy looking, any part numbers or names stamped on them anywhere?

nah, they look normal. they look like the style (sorry dont know who makes em) that go from the rear control arm box to the area where the tranny crossmember mounts, instead of going straight to the front box area. they kinda go diagonal to the center of the car. I have seen some installed and I prolly wouldnt run them, but thats just my opinion

No part number stamped on them at all nor is there a name. They are going to be dirt cheap to pick up so that is why I am looking at them. I have looked around and I saw a car with, what looked like, these on and it said they were MAC or Alston. So if they are one of those, are they any good?

If you can, do a test fit just to be sure. Why waste your time & money otherwise.
