Well which would be better & would I notice a difference between either one in performance or weight? Also how much of a price difference is there? I do plan to show this car around summer time so I want everything to look really tricked out. Thanx

I don't think you will see any difference in performance or weight. The stainless steel will just look better and it never rusts, so it will continue to look better forever.

Actually, unless it's polished, stainless looks just like plain steel before it has started rusting. Aluminized (not "aluminum") looks better at first, but will start corroding from the inside and anywhere it gets scratched. Stainless is also much tougher. I remember trying to bend the end of an exhaust tip on my old '83 Z28 to clear a trailer hitch and I could hardly dent it. That's when I discovered I had the original GM stainless system. Only the mufflers were aluminized and eventually developed holes.
