Mesa headers and why somebody might gripe...

Ron, Tim, anybody else who might be curious--

I spoke with Art Artinger, the R&D guy/fabricator for Mesa. He said that
they had a production problem with Y-pipes for Durangos a while back. He
designs the gear, then they sub out the mass-production. He said that there
were some shoddy spot-welds at the flanges on a batch of Durango pipes, but
that they have addressed the problem. It's only logical, the things are
guaranteed for the life of the truck.

I agree with *you* Tim -- I don't understand why one would slam them without
substantiating their claims. Doesn't make any sense.
