i can back omeys headers and pulley i only got to drive my car for a bout a week before i totalled her but i will say over the week i did drive it and took it on the highway and off the light driving even before the ecu adapted to the headers and pully the car was pulling really good i could feel the power low end and top end if ur looking for good quality,good performance and a good person to buy them from omey would be a good place to start i thought it wold be the route to go with kleemen or rentech but this is a much cheaper solution and just as good for our N.A cars good luck and enjoy who ever is SMART enough to purrchase this deal.
. Best Regards,
~AMS~

SLK55 AMG
be aware that after putting on custom headers on my SLK55 AMG, I began having catalytic converter problems resulting in check engine lights, needed to put on high grade convertors to solve the problem

I don't think AMS makes these headers anymore (this thread is from 2009) and I want to say that they were bought out by another company.
edit:
AMS isn't around anymore. Looks like they shut down in 2011.

I didn't take any measurements unfortunately. I should have done it at that time

If I purchase the EBay headers, the ones that look like the AMS ones, I will take measurements and start a new thread.
Maybe someone else took measurements of the Kleemann and AMS headers.

Definitely. The eBay ones looks good and the gaskets are one piece which make them a lot easier to line up. Like a broken record, I can't stress enough on sanding down the flange nice and flat before installing them.😊

Going to put them on a CNC milling machine to check for trueness and if necessary, mill the surface flat. I'll post that process also.
If, (if) I buy the headers.
Yeah, you know I will get them....

I went ahead and purchased them. $449 with free shipping
The company is: Top Speed Auto out of Addison, TX. I will start a new thread when I receive them next week.

I received the headers today. I will create a new thread with my findings.
* also found a shop with a chassis dynometer.
* also found a source for x-pipe, 45 degree, straight pipe, removal and install of exhaust
