Agreed, they are the best/toughest header out there. I have heard good things about IMCO Powerflow + also.

diamond marine is still selling them, although, it might be an old add.

Personally, i've always wondered why the exhaust is water cooled at all. Materials are around that can keep the heat in check and are used all the time. Turbines use them, motorcycle mufflers, etc. Why use a water jacket at all when you can use a dry header. I imagine a cmi, or other stainless header with a heat barrier as the water jacket with composite cover for the hot spots like at the head or joints. Has something like this been tried? The through hull could even be made to act as a water dump to cool the exhaust and pipe as it exits the boat while capping it from going upstream. Am I off my rocker in looney land?
