Ok, lets play name that header. I have only seen the pics of headers in catalogs and the RB in person so.
what is this one, lets call it header A. (supposedly 13b)
and this one, Header B. (supposedly 13b)
and Finally C. (supposedly 12a)

EX Pres of DFW Drunks
the 2nd one is on Ebay....
I wouldn't buy it, but I saw it....
The only one I've actually seen is RB, and it says RB on the mounting flange. (that and the flange is one part, not two, like a couple of those)

Ok here we go header "c" is a perphrial port only 12a race header for sure. Header "b" is a horribly assembled race header kit for a 12a not 13b(no o2 port) for sure, where all the pieces come in a box and you weld them together, it looks like old mazdatrix or mazda competition maybe. header "a" is a 13b header, but who made it somewhat of an enigma, it is beautiful though. 2 outta 3 not so bad!

They are all on ebay. They just do not seem to know what they have so I though I would ask the experts.
BTW it looks to me like B might have the O2 port on it, ther is a wire or somthing at the bottom of the header there.

btw they all look racing beat to me,
notice where the pipe bends,theres no wrinles,
which means its either some real nice mandrel bends or thick wall steel,
i put my money on thick wall steel,im pretty sure companys like pacesetter dont use thick wall steel.

A is definetely not RB as the runners turn right after the flange and RB the rear runner travels outward a little bit to make the header equal length. plus it has no RB stamped in it.
I was thinking B was a RB knockoff of some kind as there is no RB stamped in it.
There is no way in hell C is RB. RB are single flange.

The factory PP housings have a different bolt flange pattern.
I was looking at it myself and wondering... HMM. But it's so hard to tell that I didn't say anything.

B - (13B) looks like a racing beat copy or maybe a u-weld-it that just didnt have the RB cut out on the flange.
C - (12A) not a perf. port, I own two that look very similar to this one. Peripherial ports have tiny flanges and the bolt holes are very close to the tube.

One was from a parts car and one from a car in a junkyard. Dead cars tell no tales; the owners didnt have a clue either. I suspect they might be mazda headers, but have found no proof.
Oddly enough, the one that came with the parts car had a presilencer bolted to it that looked just like the presilencer thats attached to header B.
