They seem to be really nice. They tuck up really well too.

I say get them. Can't beat the price and the quality is really good too.

Here is my thread on them. I have yet to put them on yet, but I can tell you that they are of much better quality compared to the Pacesetters I used to have. They are also cheaper than them. There are a few guys that have installed them and are really happy with the fit, quality, and power. The Ti-tech coating looks pretty tough. I have not heard any negative things about them. They should last jsut as long as any other coated header.

I have the slip-fit Edelbrock's on my 01. It only took me 2 hours to install them w/o dropping the motor and had no problems. After I installed them on my car I dropped half a second off my ET. I have no leaks and no complaints about them. They rub a little bit on the K-Member but not much at all...and the coating starts to rust a little in the bends but not much...for the money and the results they are the best.
