    Just wondering what to do with these OEM headers that are bad. Any salvage value from them or do they just go in the recycle bin?

    Well, that's a possibility if there's no salvage value but I would guess there is if someone out there repairs them and resells them.

    There are two companies in the UK that rebuild them. I would imagine that both might want to purchase them to use as exchange units or cores.

    Well, it looks like there is a little interest in the OEM headers so maybe I will just put them on ebay and take best offer. Can I post the link to ebay here or is that not allowed?

    I was thinking about doing the same thing with mine. I have one bad header and one good one. I also have the cats.
