Default dynatech headers?

Was thinking about buying the dynatech stainless steel header kit. Just curious if anybody has any thing to say about them good or bad? Clearance issues anything will be helpfull. The setup looks almost like the flp's that i was going to get but flp was having alot of quality issues and stoped making headers! Any feedback would be greatly appriciated!!!

I just bought a set, however, they are not installed yet. The qaulity looks great. All of the pieces fit together nicely. I know that my Pacestters starting rusting at 6 months and now have began falling apart. I should have just dropped the money for the qaulity headers in the beginning. The cats and y-pipe are 2.5" in diamater also. I see that some of the others are 3". One if the reasons I went with these is that the y-pipe and cats are also stainless steel. All of the welds appear to be of top qaulity and cleaned up in the port area. Until I get them installed that is all the info I have on them.
