Apparently really good Headers for the price!

So Jeremy at Fasterproms made a video with a 2020 ZLE and they used these headers: https://www.speed-engineering.com/
The only thing is they only come with the Catless IF you buy the entire kit. I have the Corsa Extreme+ Catback and don’t need all of it and want catted mids or it would be too loud lol. Any ideas? What mids would work with those 2” headers and the Corsa?

Has anyone used speed engineering headers? Where are they made? How was the fitment?

Those have to be Chinese headers at that price...

Search the forums for header reviews. There are good and bad reviews about them. Multiple comparisons and reviews for all brands if you're in the market for headers.

I have heard good and bad about quality and fit. IMHO, with long tube headers you get what you pay for. Kooks and ARH are pricey, but the quality of construction and fit are top notch. I would not cut corners on LTs.

The current fastest sixth gen has Speed Engineering headers. Fitment might be hit or miss but must be fine power wise.

They'll all make about the same power. But the the quality of the stainless steel and the quality of the welds and design are better with Kooks or ARH.

Negative. No known affiliations/relatives related to Brandon Farthing(the owner of Maryland Speed) have ownership in speed engineering either.

I ordered some valve covers from them, and they accidentally shipped me headers. The packaging on the headers needs some serious attention. They were thrown in cheap plastic bags and put in a box without any protection. By the time the box got from California to me in Florida, the box was also destroyed. If I was sent a set of headers that came in looking like that, I would be pretty upset. The valve covers, on the other hand, were packaged perfectly once they arrived.

They have headers for older C10 LS swaps, so I got them for my brother's truck. Agree with above statements on the packaging, it was garbage and the box looked like it was in a war. No damage that we could see to the headers though, and they were pretty good quality for the price. They've been on his truck for about 2 years now with no issues.

Can't speak for Camaro specific.
