The SLPs are the best, but most people use the Edelbrock TES and are very happy with them. Both are sold in Summit.

All I've got to say is Hooker Headers hands down. Ask any exhaust shop which is the best & they will say it's Hooker (well that's what all the exhaust shops that I went to said).

This is a tuff one. Everyone who has gone with SLP says SLP. Everyone who gas gone Edelbrock says Edelbrock and same goes for Hooker. Only time I ever heard anyone complain is when they didn't coat there Edelbrock TES headers and they rusted out. Same goes for hooker. If u get Hooker or Edelbrock TES Headers, make sure u get them coated. Its worth every penny.
