    SSAC's are def the way to go. just beware of the band clamp joints (prone to leak) and flexpipes. pacesetter headers are good IF the rear header has been welded to the crossover.

    So i realized the SSAC are like half the price, but if went with these, what has to be done to them to keep them lasting (modifications to problems with them). I'm really thinkin about these becuz of the price...

    i just installed my SSAC headers over the weekend, just remember good band clamps and use some copper rtv and they should seal just fine, and incase you didn't know you will want to drop the rear part of the sub-frame.. it makes life a whole lot easier

    Another +1 for the SSAC. I bought some band clamps at NAPA i cant remember the specific name but they were like a sheet of metal about 4 inches wide with two bolts, they stretch around the pipe and sealed right up, i did copper RTV the hell out of the slip joints and tightened the clamp bolts until i couldnt turn it anymore, but no leaks what so ever.

    Only other thing that might give you trouble is the flex section, i think i may have a small tick coming from mine. Other than that they cant be beat for the money, the shiney stainless steel looks alot better than the rusty manifolds under the hood too.

    S&S headers are the best install. if youre not planning on a heads/cam/intercooler build then they will work just fine, even with the smaller primaries. hell, i would put them on an all out build too just because all the slip fit headers out there suck. anything three piece sucks. two piece with one donut gasket, S&S did something right.
