OBX Racing rip off, OBX Racing headers fit Options

[dbreitkreutz]

I am from the Pacific Northwest and have a '74 Type 4 914. I built a big bore 2.0 L this winter for it and want to ask anybody else about purchasing any products from OBX racing. I bought a set of headers through the Tuning Depot on E Bay. Upon arrival the set looked good with fair workmenship. Till I got the engine and tranny together and hanging on a hoist, I found about the poor fit off the headers. It could not fit on #3 and 4 if you had even a big hammer. There was a interference fit to the case which made it impossible to draw up the headers to the exhaust studs. Even if you could the tabs for the studs were too tight and you were unable to make it work. I had to deal with the Tuning depot and OBX for several weeks through e-mail and un-answered phone calls. When they responded, I sent the documentation they wanted to show the problem. I never got a answer back. Finally I got a body on the phone, but he was clueless. He had to talk to his manager. Then I got a e-mail saying OBX Racing had never seen any problems with this product and told me I was SOL.
I am asking if anybody has used these headers and they fit?
Thanks, Daniel
