I'm running the TES headers, woke the car up a bit more and sound good 
No problems with fitting them in and no problems with clearance. Only problem I did have was when I put the TH400 in over the weekend, one of the mounting tabs for the torque converter dust cover was hitting the exhaust. A saw took care of that

They're not bad, though the *** damn exhaust leaks gotta go. I have to replace the donut gasket after about 1 1/2 yrs.

I've had nothing but good luck with mine. I'd say they're better than average.
Some guys swear by the slp's, and I'm sure they're worth the money, but at the time I bought mine, I had to choose between the edelbrocks or nothing so it wasn't too hard of a decision.

i would suggest getting the ones for a 350 TPI, they come with a 3" ypipe that will be better if/when you go with 3" pipe

I like my Edelbrock TES's. I suggest that u get copper exhaust gaskets though so u never have to deal with exhaust leaks. I went with the SCE and Stage 8 bolts and I haven't had a leak in 2 years.

Yes, they come with air tubes. Does anyone know of a good header that comes with just an oxygen sensor fitting? I want to get rid of my A.I.R., but I want some headers that fit right also. I know I could plug the holes up on those headers, but would rather not have to. Thanks
