headman, edelbrock, and dynomax are all 50 state legal and $300. You can find hooker headers for $320. There are also some non legal hookers and headmans for about $150. All above have 1-5/8" primaries. I think they dynomax headers have a 2.5" outlet. Edelbrock has the option of 2.5" or 3" outlets.
