Default how well do BBK headers fit f bodies

I have a 2000 Z28 the previous owner installed ebay headers that fit horribly and constantly knock into the floor. I looked on summit and the only thing within my price range is a set of BBKs http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BBK-1694/. I've looked around and can't seem to find any reviews on them. Has anbody bought these headers and if so how do they fit and whats the overall level of quality?

It's about 100 bucks more for their headers and y pipe then the BBK. I've seen mixed reviews from their stuff from mustang guys and 2 good ones for 5th gen camaros. Just on a tight budget right now.

Ive got them on my car and they fit good. I ran the y pipe for about a year then did a custom x and true duals. Pm me, I know a place were you can get them dirt cheap.

To the guy who said the pacesetters fit much better. Ive seen both on these cars and they both fit great the bbks tuck up a bit nicer than pacesetters but overall they fit great no denting of anything required and they slide right in. go with bbk cheaper or same price depending on finish.

Only problem BBK is really behind. I ordered mine from LMPerformance. Said it was going to be 2 weeks out. 5 weeks later I still don't have them Called Yesterday they said 3-4 weeks more. I just cancelled and went with Pacesetters from TSP.

Really sucks because I wanted BBK because of the price but also because of the ground clearance.
