Default "old" style SLP header ?

So I bought a 2001 SS that has the tuned length slp headers and catted y-pipe. Are these headers very good? I have a set of old school whisper headers in my shed. They are 1-7/8" mid lengths with a 3" collector and off-road y-pipe. I know these headers work well, but have no experience with the slp's. I am considering selling the slp's and putting the others on as I know how well they performed for me before. What do you guys think?

The spaghetti SLP headers? I'd pass on those - they've never been known to perform well at all.

They perform just as well as all the other 1 3/4 primary headers on the market. Only flaw they have is ground clearance. If you do not plan on lowering the car they will be fine.
