Question Need help fast-Pacesetters,Edelbrock or Flowtech?

I've been researching this to death and still can't decide which coated long tubes to get. I'm leaning towards the Pacesetters but am interested in the edelbrocks as well. Any idea on which has the best ground clearance, power,etc. I've read lot's of good stuff about the pacesetters and only limited info on the new Edelbrocks, like where to buy them etc. Also noticed the flowtechs are about the same price as the pacesetters but can't seem to find anyone who actually has them on their car. I've had the money for a month now, I just can't make up my mind!!! Please HELP!!!! Thanks, Rain

I've heard mostly good things from pacesetters, and the new edelbrocks seem to be gaining popularity, I would personally chose between those two, which ever you like better. I think either way you will get a good product.

We have coated pacesetter longtubes and our off-road y-pipes in stock and ready to go....together they are $500.00+shipping

Pacesetters are really easy to install and have great ground clearance...they can usually be installed without scratching any of the coating off in the process

let me know if you have any questions!!

just my .02 but steel headers are steel headers and since all the ones you mentioned are coated I would just get the least expensive ones.
My vote is for the Pacesetters.
