The magnet will not stick to them, regardless if they are made from 304 or 321 SS. The magnet test wont prove a thing..Quote:

You must have ordered the same time I did because that is almost verbatim what has happened to me.
This is getting good :lol:
No, no, please, I am not trying to start a burn thread. I just want to figure this out and know exactly what I have here.Quote:

And re-reading this entire post I dont see that I have flamed, accused, incited or defamed anyone, I'm just presenting what I ordered as opposed to what I received and what I was told after contacting XS Power and surmising an opinion based on everything so far.
If the moderator would please delete any posts that could even be even speculated to be adversarial or outright offending would be greatly appreciated. It's not my right to be concerned with LTXtech's relationship with its sponsors. I just want to get this straightened out if at all possible.
If I have 321 stainless headers made in Georgia stamped with XS Power plates, I'm cool with that as long as LPP can explain how that works.
If I have 304 stainless made in China by XS Power then I'd like to return these and buy them directly from XS Power and save $125.
I would start the return process now with LPP. This looks a little crooked to me. Hopefully the vendor can chime in and straighten it out.
I wouldn't delete anything. We, as potential/existing customers, have a right to know what's going on. If they are chinese headers, they should be marketed as such. I get the whole reselling thing, Summit does it ALL the time. But come clean about it.
Exactly!
If LPP would just explain the ordering and manufacturing process between them and XS Power I might be willing to keep them provided that they are true 321 stainless and made in Georgia as claimed by LPP. if not, at least tell the truth and give me the cost difference and I still might keep them.
Do they bolt on? Are they nicer than pacesetters? Are they stepped headers? Do they do what they are supposed to do and exhaust exhaust? Are they cheaper than kooks? Idn what people are splitting hairs over in here. When I had a fbody I would've killed for a set of Lpp or xs power headers. Kooks knock offs for half the price? Cmon guys
SSlowBoat, you don't see anything wrong with somebody selling a knock off product, claiming that it's made of a better grade material when it's not, made elsewhere than what you were told and then charging you more than what you could have bought them for from the original company for less??
Had I known that I could have just bought XS Power 304 stainless from China I would have done so myself, had them sooner and saved $125.
Harner shows thanks for that post when his previous posts says just the opposite.
I think the main issue is XS Power may be the same thing but $150 cheaper and the same quality/materials but sold as a higher scale product.
edit-beat me to it haha
