Anybody else seen Hotshots website?

Just wondering if anyone else has looked at Hotshots website in awhile. not sure when it was updated but they have the headers on sale for $300 shipped while their supplies last and no more put into production when their gone. I mailed them my order earlier in the week couldnt pass that up since i planned on buying them for $550 + shipping.

That is legit. I went to the site a week or two ago, and this seems to be all new. I would jump all over this, I'm a happy Hotshot customer.

I dunoo,, Hotshot has been in business for a while, but there website seems to be Sketchy now, They used to have a Contact number but now its only email. And i tried looking them up in Yellow Pages, cant find them... and why do we have to send an order form with a money order or a check. This is a great buy, but it seems sketchy.... when they are not giving there information! i dont want to send check if they are just gonna keep it and not send my Headers! i just think this is a lil weird!

Fishpony, please let us know when you recieve them.

I don't understand one thing, how do you know if they still have them? Are they sending you check back in case of running out?

I am glad I found this thread. I have my set for sale for $450 shipped in the classifieds, and a member just notified me that they were being clearanced for $300 shipped on the Hotshot site. I thought it was an old deal, but I guess not. I need to contact them in order to see if it is legitimate. Does anyone know their contact information? I don't want to be negative, but it looks sketchy. A business not listing their phone number for questions and answers worries me.

Haha! I had 4 potential buyers in the last 12 hours, but if this deal is real, then I can just kiss those people goodbye. I guess we will see if it is legit by the end of the week.

3.5 headers fit 3.0 with some modification to one of the accesory brackets on the engine.

They direct fit by moving the primary o2 sensor on the front manifold, no brackets need to be modified...

Ohh and if you have a 00' with an EGR, plan on having an CEL since there is no EGR fitting. You can have one put on... But they have to be PERFECTLY lined up and Cattmans have all of that, fit perfect AND are stainless.

you arent screwing anyone...supply and demand.
if you can afford them all, buy them. them make money in the future.
anyone who wants them now can buy them now. if you sold them in the future...it would be to future people that didnt have the chance to buy them now.
