Anyone know anything about OBX?

Hi - if you're going to buy that then at least pay what's worth :

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fit-77-83-Datsun-280Z-280ZX-2-8L-Non-Turbo-Mid-Length-Exhaust-Header-Manifold/401588176937?fits=Make%3ADatsun&hash=item5d80854829:g:5T0AAOSwR5Fc-8pJ

And know that the ports are round on all such headers and if you haven't spotted it - the gasket is completely useless.

How’s my header coming along !!!!!

OK so all obx ss are all round ports which is not for a E88 (square) so that eliminate obx.

Digging deeper the consensus amongst the forums is the 3/2 MSA but I prefer coated. They told me all they have is painted and coating has no ETA. (N/a)

Is the California Datsun the same as the MSA? CD responded with 2 weeks for the header and another 2 weeks to be coated.

Z story looks nice but also way backed up.
Whitehead doesn’t answer phone
Fuji is over kill for my project

Does anyone have feedback on CD’s solution or should I just settle on MSA painted in case 90 day estimate could goes longer

If I was looking for an inexpensive, effective header, I'd go for MSAs' 6-3-2 and NOT the 6-1. If you must have ceramic-coating, get it coated after the purchase :

ASHLEY BARCZY

Jet-Hot, High Performance Coatings

2611 LaVista Drive, Burlington,NC 27215

Agreed with Sean! Had that MSA one on my L26 before the Z-story and it did a great job on a mostly stock engine (with a ported head) that burned a fair bit of oil! I loved that torque curve!
