I am not trying to say any vendor is better then the other, but I will suggest TSP because I hear their newishly designed y-pipe they offer with the pacesetter headers is actually pretty good. If you dont need the y-pipe though, then as previous poster said, anywhere thats got a sale on em.

The Pacesetters are 1 3/4" primary. Texas Speed makes a ceramic coated longtube for the 4th gen F-bodies though that is 1 7/8" for those who want or need the extra size.

My vote's for TSP. Occasionally I guess you can luck out like I did and get a scratch and dent set discounted, if you don't mind cosmetics. I figured the paint is gonna burn anyways and I installed headers for performance, not style.
