They have a great reputation with their diesel products and I haven't come across any complaints on their manifolds for the DS series HEMI's yet.

I've been waiting for these to come out and I just ordered them. I don't trust OEM (too worried about keeping them cheap), done with cracking shorties (I installed two sets) and I don't want to shell out thousands of dollars to change over to long tube.
