Check out the edelbrock website. I honestly think it is bull. I did a total rebuild on mine with performance parts anyways, but i guess they could be right. Ill post what they say on the website.

"Tubular Exhaust Systems...
Include Headers and Crossover for a Complete System and Maximum Seat-of-the-Pants Performance

Boost performance and driveability in your vehicle with high-quality Edelbrock Tubular Exhaust System headers. In some cases, you'll shave up to a full second off your acceleration time from 0 to 60 mph because the Edelbrock design improves your engine's ability to breathe. Mileage may also improve, as your engine becomes more fuel efficient. Best of all, our Tubular Exhaust System (TES®) headers give you all this performance within acceptable emissions levels and without voiding the new vehicle warranties. TES® headers accept all stock emissions equipment, leaving them fully operational and most systems are complete from the heads to the catalytic converter. The outstanding features built into every Edelbrock exhaust delivers the best in quality and performance.
Some Tubular Exhaust Systems are available in 409 stainless steel for extra protection against the high-heat conditions encountered in heavy-duty use such as towing and hauling heavy loads. These stainless steel headers have a five year warranty against rust, corrosion or burn-through.
Most Edelbrock Tubular Exhaust System headers have been granted an Executive Order Number from the California Air Resources Board making them street legal on pollution controlled motor vehicles. An Executive Order Number is pending on some applications, call our Factory Tech Line for more information on these numbers. Emissions exemption and a street legal status is granted through an extensive testing process that shows that a device does not reduce the effectiveness of a vehicle's pollution control equipment."
