I expect another year or so of the stainless disruption. We are going to bend up a set or 2 of steel headers and see how it goes. My expectation is that steel will be the new normal for both headers and mufflers. Once I run out of stainless for the 40 some odd units I have left than it will likely be another 12-18 months before stainless will be normalized enough to invest in any more. |

Had the same problem getting metal. For lower grade applications we switched over to 3CR12, much cheaper than 316 and generally good for external corrosion.
