#138323, "Did I come across a long tube header?"


          

So I bought a 98 Eclipse that the timing belt skipped a tooth for $800 and was just getting around to looking at it. I was about to tear the head off and get it running, but I noticed the header... I have never seen one that looks like this sold by a company. Anyone know?

Shots of the car. In great condition imo.

That looks very close to the OBX I had on my '95.

Def not an OBX. I've owned an OBX, Greddy, Megan, eBay, DC Sports. None of them look like this. This was custom made.

Ah yes, I can see that now. The flange where it meets the flex pipe is different than on the OBX.

It was pretty nice for $800 until I drained the oil and got nothing but metal chunks, then drained the trans and got nothing but metal chunks. The previous owner told me all that was wrong was it skipping timing and had some bent valves. I love liars.... completely rebuilt stock now.
