Header Collector Connection
I am in the process of having stainless headers made by Stainless Headers Manufacturing and they offer a few different flange options on their collectors: three hole, V-band, and straight.
I have seen people using V-band connections and it looks like a superior connection type.
Thoughts?

V-bands are nice. They're obviously not the cheap route, but they seal really well, and are easy to disconnect for maintenance or changes.

V-band are the only way to go. Not cheap but leak and trouble free. Another plus is they are infinetly reusable.
