I have one on my 80, actually it worked pretty well for about one year, now it is getting progressively louder. And very quickly at that.

is the flange on a monza header two seperate parts for each rotor, or just one connected part?

I think you're getting the impression here...

They are garbage and the hot rotary exhaust will burn a hole straight through them at the 90 degree bend within just a few months if you drive your car with any zest or regularity.

I had a set, $99 through JC Whitney, and you get what you pay for. Pay about 40-60 more and get Racing Beat - certainly cheaper than buying and installing a Monza pile of crap every year.

If it's too separate parts, are they any good or is that just in Mozas case?
