Default APN Header

I'm trying to buy a new APN header from ineedparts.com. The problem I'm running into is all I get on their site is 404 page not found. I was looking at it just two days ago and it worked. Is anybody else having this problem? Is there anywhere else to get one? I've sent them an email asking what the deal is, but who knows how long it'll take for them to respond.

Can anyone recommend a similar header for a similar price? I've heard only good about the APN, and I can't afford to pay much more right now. I don't want junk, but I can't afford to pay a ton.

Any help would be greatly appreciated since I was going to order this morning and it's holding up my project plans.

I found a couple on eBay. One was a dmc performance the other was from newpoint motor. Does anybody have any experience with either of these?

Thanks for the phone number. I called and talked to Steve. He said they pulled them temporarily to check quality. They've had several come back lately and want to figure out why. They hope to have them available again in about 3 weeks.

Don't forget you will have to fabricate it if you have the 99+ manifold.

How much modification should I expect to do to make it work with the 99+ intake? Because that's my plan.

The Banks I'm looking at is about 6 years old. Never used. It's an older style than the new revolver style.

You'll have to grind a tad off the bottom on the intake runners on the #1 and #6 cylinders. Expect to grind some install remove grind more , a few times.
