Default Pacesetter vs. Ti-tech

I have been looking at these two LT's and was wondering which ones you guys think are best. The reason being that they are two inexpensive LT's and both have decent quality. Haven't seen much on the edelbrock ti-tech but when they first came out they had good reviews. PLEASE don't just say blah blah just because you have them...state why they are better thanks people!!

you can't go wrong with either. i personally like pacesetters because they have 3in collectors that fit my 3in duals nicely. if you have plans for decent size cam and/or heads or forced induction, i would go with the stepped edelbrocks with the 3.5in collectors. both are quality headers that you can't go wrong with.

go edelbrock. theyll make more power than pacesetteres or any other non-stepped header. they also have the expansion cone, true merge collectors and 3.5 inch collectors. i got edelbrocks before they had their ceramic coating, wish i had the coating, but even the painted ones are better than most. go big or go home...get the edelbrock. mine also slid right in, something a pacesetter header will most likely not do...

not if you get the new batch of pacesetters. most people have no problem slipping them in.

Same here... I laughed when they went in so easily no cutting, notching of any kind! I got the coated off road headers and quality was great! Came with all hardware, including "Get R Done" o2 extensions and the 20HP pacesetter sticker!

Personally.. I like my QTP's, but it's a preferance thing... I's actually like to see an aftermarket comparison on a cam or head/cam car with every set of available headers, all on the same car at the same shop, and go with everyone's y pipe that they offer... or a generic one that will fit most to get the best comparison... be intresting to see... and someone would be getting a bunch of sales out of it.. and someone would not!

3.5in collector imo is too big for a 346....
Pacesetters are a good deal..
