Cheap Exhaust Manifolds?

Just browsing some ebay motors and noticed stock type exhaust manifolds for FE trucks at about 29 bucks including shipping.
Does anyone know anything about these parts? Are they worth it?
(at less than 30 bucks, it might be worth a try, just carry a spare).

Item number: 370121945731

I bought a set of 460 manifolds for them - very good quality.
Chinese, yes, but they were made right and fit right. Can with high quality studs and brass nuts, too.

Price them at your local parts store and I'll bet they get them from the same supplier and will charge you at least twice as much. With free shipping a good deal. Might want to have the mating surface ground flat at your local automotive machine shop to insure a good seal.
