both get great reviews on here and people seem to recommend whichever one they went with. I personally dont think you are going to go wrong with either. If the choice was between those two id see if a sponsor was having a sale and go with that product.

The only reccomendation id make is to step up to stainless, hookers or pacesetters are going to rust and look nasty, QTP's, ARH, or LPP's wont. you alsoare going to pick up better numbers with some of those guys too. I thnk LPP even just introduced a HVMC on thier new model. its absolutley worth the extra money.

Hooker makes a SS header in both 1 3/4" and 1 7/8" I have seen them (1 3/4")for as low as $519. The 1 7/8" are the Super Comps and have a nice velocity spike.
