I've worked with one of the 3-piece (or was this a 5-piece?) headers. The 
telescoping sections allowed it to fit easily, and the telescoping sections had 
enough overlap that the leakage did not cause a noticable problem. However, 
with all the sliding joints it lacked stiffness, and the owner backed it into a 
snowdrift one day and it just roller under and folded under the car. I was able 
to pull it back, but really didn't care for it.
