They would be perfect if everyone welded them like I did...

i bought some SLP's & love them!

how much do you want to spend? that will depend on what headers youll get. they range from $300-900 pretty much.

I would be willing to spend around $500-$600...that sounds good.

not really going to find a set for that price. the cheap ones are about $300-400 and the expensive (good) ones are about $700-900.

S&S headers (the ones i run on my car) are probably going to be the cheapest good set you can buy. with ceramic coating you could probably get them shipped to you for a little under $700. honestly if i were to do it again i would just get the uncoated headers and then wrap them, but i dont really care what my engine bay looks like. if you like shiny things then you need a ceramic coating.

I love my TOGs.....

I got my ss autochromes to seal on the secound try. Just had to wrench on the clamp a little more.

I've heard some good things about those and I hear they're pretty cheap, how do you like em?

I have not driven with them yet. I am having other issues. I do have a tick comming from the flex, but I can live with it. You could also weld in one of zzp flexs. I just had to get some nice stainless steel band clamps and then tighten them up with my impact and they sealed fine. Oh i also rtv'd the joints.

Love my Pacesetter Headers! They sound great. Only one complaint though; the powder coating flaked off fast.

Pacesetter's are coated for about $550...then about $50 worth of welding and such...there you go. $600 2000* coated headers.
