Has anyone used speed engineering headers?

Looking at stuffing a 4.8 in the ole lady’s 86 c10 this winter and she’s on a budget and I came across speed engineerings stuff. The long tubes I’m looking at are 304 stainless and only $300.
Has anyone used these and they’ve been decent quality and held up or are they junk?

I don't have the long tubes, but I do have the LS swap mid length headers and they are working really well for me.

Used them on my 79 c-10 6.0 4l80 swap fit good other than spark plug clearance on a couple plugs on the left side

I use those exact headers in my 5.3/4L60e swapped 87 C10, lowered ~5 inch in the front, on tejas steelwork engine mounts, with absolutely no issues. I love them

Have them on an fbody. Runs good.

I run them on my ls swapped fox body and for what I paid I couldn’t believe the quality and fitment. Especially considering I made the engine mounts before I even bought the manifolds.

Put a set on a cutlass. Quality good, fitment 6/10

I haven't seen a set in probably 10 years or more but they used to make the best of the chinesium truck headers.

4 years on my 70 c10, no problems. Fit was really nice, didn’t have to modify frame rails or anything else.

Had a pair on my 71 Cutlass, and a friend has some on his 01 Silverado. They are really impressive for the price.
