Another email from XSpower...

Yes, I understand. That was not my intention with anything I said. I ordered these headers and after they arrived I became extremely concerned with what I bought. There was no definitive documentation or explanation and I couldn't get any answers. I was worried that I had been taken advantage of and I did not know what else to do based on what I found. I tried my best to be civil and open minded and made every effort I could think of to not outright accuse, condemn or make presumptuous conclusions by saying "I wonder, I think, I might have, it's possible," etc. Yes, I understand the point of insinuation but I thought that was the best way to address my worry and concern up to that given point of having to resort to asking on the forum. I appreciate your apology and I would like to offer the same.
wow, long read! shady business combined with very defensive replies, not anyone i'd want to deal with.
glad i didn't waste any money with LPP!!
I'd be defensive too when you all but had him physically nailed to a cross. He explained himself many times on the same issues and then you don't believe him and want written proof. When XS backs his story with the same thing in writing, they want physical proof. Sadly, even with a picture of the manufacturing facility with a signed notary's stamp and a handshake from the governor, it would be the same result. LPP's was never gonna win in this witch hunt after it got 7 pages in before he could reply. Also, both sides have apologized for the miscommunications and accusations so its time for this to die.Quote:

We can purchase LT1 headers directly through XS Power for $475 shipped (was $449 last week), so what is the difference between your version and the headers received when purchased directly through XS Power themselves or one of their other venders?Quote:

I am in no way asking you for an explanation as to why XS Power describes these headers on their site as they do, just wanted to point out some things that are important to customers and would be better selling points if listed in the description by the manufacturer.
LPP uses a different design than XS-Power.
How do I know this? Because I have XS-Power. Another member here bought LPPs. He had no grinding to do, no hammering. He also put new poly mounts in.
I had grinding to do, my rubber motor mounts have maybe 2000 miles on them. I had no rubbing on the steering shaft but he did. I don't know if he used a ls1 shaft or Lt1 shaft, I used a ls1 shaft and I know my lt1 would have fit. But that's all 'circumstantial'.
In my opinion, two similar but different designs homie. But what do i know..
Ye have little faith.

I just want a little more than words on the Made in America part, you would think for such a proud statement it would be easy to prove. :(
I also bought LPP headers, and received headers labeled/packaged/shipped directly from XS Power. What im trying to find out is how to actually identify what I received if they are all labeled/packaged the same and shipped from XS Power's warehouse. Is there a comparison of LPP headers VS XS Power headers that we can view and identify what we have since they are labeled the same?Quote:

Yes, and rightfully so when you purchase one product- receive something labeled as another- then the only means of contacting the seller is through emails which receive no response or through an online forum.
and also a statement that the manufacturer and other venders selling their headers would advertise as well!Quote:
