        check camaroz28.com. You'll find more there. Fitment issues, install issues, etc... Poorly made hader. I would get the MAC or hooker or something.

          well, hooker for the ones in my price range are only black painted, macs are midlength and i heard are made primarly to work in mustangs and come with HTS coating dont know how good that is. what model do you have? are the ceramic or not. how do you like them, how much hp did you net, do they hold up well? sound quality? how good of a fit are they?.the reason i wanted to go bbk is the price beat 350 with y-pipe and headers are chrome. i heard bbk is good quality and sounds great. well pacesettters are in my range but the local speedshop woudlnt even sell them their they all say they are junk? dont know about that, ive heard mixed reviews.

            I have the MAC's. MAC's are very popular with LT1 f-bodies. Never heard much about them on stangs, then again I never read up on stangs. The quality is awesome, and no I didn't get their coating, it sucks. Mine were coated by paul barry motorsports. I love the headers. They installed nicely, sound great, fit great, and have THE BEST spark plug access of any header out. I have mine running through an ORY, no cats, to a magnaflow catback. It sounds killer at WOT, and rumbles nice and deep at idle. Oh yeah, my car is a dual cat 97, but I bought the mac mids for a 94-95 because I liked the style better. I think they're great. If I could go back there is no other header I'da bought.

            I have never heard anything bad about pacesetter. Maybe the guys don't get commission off of them, or can't order them, that's why they say their junk.

              Pacesetters certainly arn't junk anymore they are the best bang for the buck out there i believe. I got mine from jet hot with the jet hot coating (much better then the armor coating from pacesetter) for $360.
