Aint skeered just put some on his car, and picked up a few horsepower accross the board over Mac's. he also put a 75 shot on it, and got around 96 RWHP, so they seem to be working, i am in the process of installing mine right now. and you can't beet the price, i got mine for 500$ shipped to me with the ORY pipe, and all kins of band clamps, O2 extensions, and other things. it was a helluva deal for sure

They look like a great header choice that your car can grow into as the mod list grows, then you can use them again when you go with that 402 stroker.

I'd get them over Pacesetters (that's just my opinion, I'm not knocking Pacesetters in any way).

I think i might look into their tri-coating a little more and see if people are happy with it and i just might go with them, thanks again for the comments and opinions.

: yup and they are stepped 1 3/4 to 1 7/8 headers too. i just got mine on and they went on with minimal problems at all. I also just cranked it with open headers and these vs my old super comp Hooker headers is night and day difference, just in sound. much deeper. for the money, they are awsome for sure. i bought mine from Chris @ SDPC.

The Edelbrock's have 3.5" collectors. You would need a pair of reducers. But, anything's possible with the right equipment.
