I have no experience with TSP headers, so I can't comment on them. However, I recently installed 1 7/8" ARH on my 6 speed SS and they went in very easy. I had the car up on ramps and jackstands, and I didn't have to remove the steering linkage, oil filter, or the boss above it.

I just put the TSP 1 7/8 on and they seem really high quality....stainless steel. I'm still working on the rest of my exhaust system so I can only attest to fit and visual appearance.

I am looking to do stainless headers and with TSP stainless headers being about 1/2 the price of ARH and Kooks, is there any reason I should not get them?
No, there is no reason you shouldnt get the TSP, hands down the best deal. Stainless at that price is a no brainer.

I'm haven't got any numbers and won't drive it until I finish my exhaust. I doubt it will be much of a gain now, but should help when I go head/cam.
