hooker's are price and performance effective but if price isint an issue then kooks are it and bomb soundin im0
if cost is not an issue, kooks, hands down, if cost is an issue, look into the TSP 1 7/8 headers, or a set of pacesetter coated LT's (which give me plenty of ground clearance even with a steepass driveway and TD's
I will second the spark plug ease of access. My brother has pacesetters and the plug on the passenger side rear sucks big time. I can change all my plugs out in the same amount of time it takes to change just the back 2 on the passengers side of my bro's car.

Another vote for Kooks.
I had the same low hanging/scrapping SLP headers in the past. I was very happy to finally rip them off, and installed a nice set of Kooks. Zero clearance issues, great spark plug access also!

I have SLP's since they were having a sale at the time to get the high flow cats and y-pipe for free with the headers purchase. I don't have a problem with scraping (though I've heard of a lot of people having problems with clearance), car is stock height, and I wanted to use the O2's with the car. But if you're having problems with the SLP's scraping a lot and are damaged, why would you go back to them? Get something else, kooks or whatever.
but if it's a decision between only SLP or Kooks I would clearly go with Kooks. 
if money is no object from what i have heard/scene the american racing headers quality is great. If money is a object then go with the pacesetter LTs i have them on my car and they fit great. Install was easy as pie and the collectors tuck really high, as far as spark plugs i dont have any trouble getting them out.
