Well the block off plates are good...But the passenger side has a EGR hookup that isnt even remotely close to being located in the correct position and when putting the plug wires back on is in the way. Therefore you have to buy some sleeve to keep the hot tube from sinching through your plug wire. Then when you look into the primaries of the header tubes you can see the rest that i will mention. The emmission tubes arent welded flush to have a smooth flow inside the primaries. There quality really shows here. If it was mine, id send them back for the race version. No issues with those.

The EGR tube was my only complain because it's in the way of 2nd plug. No big deal though just make sure you change your plugs and wires while you do headers so you wont have to wory about it again. I used the Vette wires so I could still use the heat shields. As far as a sleeve for the one wire, I took some of the sleeve from one of the O2 sensors that you dont reuse and use 2 small zip ties to put it on the wire.

Pacesetter and Hooker here, suprisingly (to me) the PS were a better finish. No sense in spendin too much cents.. if ya know what i mean.

If you're going to go with ceramic coated, my vote goes to pacesetter because they have proven results. If i was you though, i would go with a set of stainless. I was going to get the pacesetters until i got a very good deal from Maryland speed on my Kooks. If i was you, id give them a call to see what kind of deal you can get. Good luck man.

I have seen all of these..the EDELBROCKS have no rivals with these other inferior brands....VIC EDELBROCK...MADE IN THE U.S.A. ....He started HIGH-PERFORMANCE Intakes and alot of other goodies..including Bonneville. VIC .JR has carried on the tradition since his father started it all in the 1930's.
