Alumatech long tube BBC headers

Anyone running them? They look good and price is attractive but so attractive I’m wondering about quality.

1/4" flanges, the tubes are not mandrel bent, not a real collector. Piece of pipe wrapped around 4 exhaust tubes. Will they work yes but that is why they are cheaper
 
I can say from experience those headers will work but definitely won't last a very long time. I've already got double the time out of my Norman Clay headers and they still have a lot of life left in them. Yes Norman Clay headers aren't cheap but they are built by far the best on the market for airboats in my opinion.
 
Number is old, but have no knowledge that it is not sill current.

I have run AlumiTech long tubes on every engine we have ever done. Never had any issue and the fabricator who builds them in the shop is a good dude so slip him a tip if you get pipes you like.

He does every custom set ordered to the length and sweep angle you specify. Costs a few bucks extra but nice to have exactly what you want.

Norm at Innovative is top shelf also he makes real nice pipes. You can’t go wrong in either shop.

It seems Alumitech is still a good alternative. Gonna contact them we need a custom set, just need to finish installing the suspension and bumper from 4Wheelonline onto the Wrangler this week.
 
I ran a set just like the one in your pic for about 8 years before I sold the boat 2" pipe 4" collector no problems. Ordered my second set for my 2019 build and haven't had a problem yet. The new set I got from alumitech did not have the sweep back like my first set and your picture and that was disappointing but it all worked out. There web site isn't up to date picture wise is all I'm getting at.
