       Mike STEBRO does not make the header pipes just a Muffler and J-pipe 
for 2.1 engines and just a Muffler for 1.9 engines.  See <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/stebro.htm">STEBRO/Vanagon 
Stainless Steel Exhaust System</A> for complete details.  You can get stainless 
steel header pipes made by DANSK from <A HREF="http://www.busdepot.com/">The Bus Depot - Discount VW Parts - 
Main Menu</A>.  I have had these header pipes on my '87 Westy since June of 2000 
when Ron first offered them for sale.  I was just under my van yesterday 
checking things out and they are doing fine.  Except.......the flanges and 
support brackets are not stainless and are showing copious amounts of rusting 
of the support brackets.  My van is driven daily through our lovely salt 
covered roads here in Eastern Ontario.  The pipes however still look perfect. 
 I expect the support brackets will have to be repaired in another year or 
so.  Sure would be nice if DANSK would do the flanges and support brackets 
out of stainless.  DANSK and Bus Depot are you listening ?
