I've got a Speed Force stainless steel header in very nice condition for $775 shipped.

Buy the ones from OBX on ebay. They're cheap and if they'll last long enough for you to save up for something that you really want.

this. just make sure you clean the insides very well. there were some reports of bad welds and subsequently some metal particles on the inside.
or you can try to pick up a set of stock ones.

"Mint" stock headers:

Offer $200 or 250, ceramic coat them and they'll be better than new, still for well under your budget. The stock headers I'm told are pretty well designed. But buying Made in China crap - eh, I don't know. You'll never be able to resell OBX for anything close to the purchase price when you do decide to upgrade to LR or SFR headers.

Gone over 2500 miles on my OBX headers and they have been fine.

That's what I wound up doing with my stock 951 headers and they look/function perfectly. Look better than new.

Are the OBX headers a direct bolt-on replacement? Any trouble with fitment?
