I have only seen the old ones crack.....I cracked one myself....it was the old 18awg steel Profab. I have yet to see a 16awg profab crack. We made 221 whp on a 1.8l CTR Piston LSVtec and also made 245 on a 85mm LS Vtec. We took the 1.8l bottom end out and put the 85mm bottom end in, so it had all the same parts(Head, Header, intake manifold, and so on).....

It's a good header for the price.

the old ones have a stamp, the new ones dont....

The Differance between the new and old is this, the New one doesn't hang down as low in the back. It is also made of 16awg steel instead of 18, so it is thicker and stronger for street use.

You can also look into a whitefield header. I think its a little bit more than a profab

i've had my profab for 2 months with no cracks, havent dynoed yet. My friend had his header on his car for 3 months with no problems until he wrecked the car. Its a good header for the price you pay, but there are better options for more money.

The header you were using was the old design if it was purchased through Camp before April 2006.

jeremy i think he meant .. its the same design. but he got the high end/ SPark racing
you know. the headers that we had to reweld 4 diffrent times due to cracking at diffrent areas.


b16coupe4 profab does not make stainless headers. you got the highend /sparks header NOT profab


we had 2 diffrent headers come in twice each for cracking issues made by sparks

Got it......I was wondering how the hell he cracked a profab at the flange, but now I see why.....Didn't we just weld A sparks header back together in another spot where it cracked.....

.....there are no stainless profab headers.....
