[QUOTE=MarylandSpeed;1321666]Couple things here.
Right now we have a free coating deal if you call us. Basically if you buy Kooks headers w/ catted connection pipes at the website price, we will do Jet Hot 1700 Degree Extreme Sterling Silver coating for free. This works out to $1349 shipped. That is a hell of a deal considering that coating alone would cost $300 to do on your own and comes with Jet Hot's warranty. Of course if you don't want coating, we can help you on price somewhere else. Kooks has rules abouet what prices we can put in print, so again you need to call (no PM's/email).
As for the price difference, both are quality products..but Kooks are 304 stainless, and JBA is 409 stainless. 304 is the higher grade of stainless steel and will not rust. Uncoated 409 stainless will rust (higher iron content), but not rust through. Also, while I have not examined a set of JBA's, I know Kooks has a merge spike, merge collector, and ball and socket connection on the mid pipe. I don't think JBA typically comes with this. Also with JBA you get their coating, which really has no brand name attached with it..
where if you get Kooks coated through us..you get 1700 degree Jet Hot Extreme Sterling silver and the warranty that comes with it. It is very important want your cross shop headers that you compare materials and features..things like 304 stainless, merge collectors, merge spikes, and TIG welding (required for 304 stainless) add a few hundred dollars.
good info, thanks. i think is saw you $1334 price on Ebay and it was for 1 3/4" headers (i could be wrong).

Anyone look at Lingenfelter gears. $799.....WTF? $500 CAI's WTF? $500 cat backs WTF?
Who are the dummies that pay theses prices? I caved on a set of headers with cats for $1,200 but I wasnt happy about it one bit. Im sitting out until things become reasonable. Im suprised people havent jumped up cam prices and labled them as "camaro camshafts" LOL.
