For shorties you'll very much like the Gibsons.
The mid-length are not direct bolt-ins, I don't think. That, and 700 bucks? I'll stick with the pacesetters......

Not bolt-in with the factory exhaust...

I said best option

JBA or Gibson for shorty headers. I have Pacesetter, definitely wouldn't recommend them.

Best only if price is not a consideration.

Do they send someone of attractive appearance and generous affections by the house every month or two during the warranty period to deliver exceptional customer service? I could see that as potentially worth $500 to someone who otherwise isn't getting any exceptional customer service.

Pacesetter has junk quality control and their full lengths have too large of primary tubes to really take advantage of with anything less than stroker. The spintechs offer much of the benefit of full lengths while having smaller primary diameter to still get the low end gain of shortys.
