Got a first hand look at a pair on a 1K blown big block a week ago at Laveycraft and they were stunning.
At 9K a set I expected a lot and wasn't disappointed.

I thought the leaking issues were mostly with certain production OEM Merc headers made by CMI to Mercs specs.

I think if I were you id just use the sport tubes then.
If you had a 1000 horse blown big block or a super high per N/A setup the results would be dramatic.
Whats your mill?
