Default Pace setters vs edelbrock headers

Hey, i have been reading and i can't deside which to get. I know not many people run the edelbrocks but i have heard good things about them but i have not heard anything bad about pace setters any many people have them. I'm on a budget and don't have the money for kooks or the $900 headers. So my question is should i go with the edelbrock headers or the pace setter headers? Advantages to one of the other? Or maybe another brand i didnt list above for the same price range. Any input would be great. thanks guys. Sorry if this is a repost, I searched it and couldn't find anything on it.

the eldebrock have a nice merge collector, but they will stil flow about the same. You can't go wrong with either one, just get the one you get the better deal on.

I have had both and was happy with both brands. Currently I run the stepped Edelbrock LT's. Quality is better on these, and fit is fantastic for both. The HVMC of the Edelbrock, and the stepped design should mean slightly more power then the Pacesetter. Also the Y pipe on for the Edelbrocks is far superior to the that of Either the Pacesetter Y pipe, or even the TSP y pipe for that matter. The ceramic coating of the Pacesetters is certainly better then the Edelbrock Ti-tech coating though.

Agreed...although I feel the Edels. are far superior..like all their products have proven to be for decades. Get ceramic coated .........
