Default Pacesetter or Hooker Headers?

I have been going back on forth on which headers to get. I heard a lot of good things about both Pacesetter and Hooker, any1 that has either of these tell me how they like them?

I had Hookers on my last car and they were great. The ground clearance was awesome and the flanges were thick. The ceramic coating was decent. I would reccomemd them.

I plan on ordering the Pacesetters this Friday. I have no hands on experience with them yet, but I have seen them on many cars and they looked great, and I haven't heard any complaints about them.

I have the pacesetters and the clearance is great. I can never seem to get my hand in there to put the wire on the number 7 plug so I'll just hop under the car and do it from the bottom. I couldn't do it with my buddy's hookers. He had to find someone with midget hands to get it on.
