Default Who makes true equal length headers?

I am leaning toward purchasing a set of QTP headers or maybe even Kooks, but is the grot design truly equal length? QTP says they are on their website, but I have heard others say they aren't. What's the deal?

I think you are right. From the pics, QTP's dont look like they are equal length. SLP is the only company that I know of that makes them equal length. I wouldn't worry about lenth, unless you have a reason.
