Depends on your budget, and if you want "high quality" stuff. I myself went with the 2" Texas Speed Headers. I love them!
Best of luck.

Check out http://lethalracing.com/Stainless-Po...s--_p_113.html

We have Stainless Works Headers that are priced great, awesome quality and we use them on 99% of our camaro builds. Same HP as any other header we have dyno tested.

My best advice to you, my friend, is to read. There are so many threads on headers...brands.....prices. Despite popular belief, there are lots of quality stainless headers out there, raning from $500 to $2000.

^^^This!!

This is by far the most covered topic on this forum, and there is so much information available to you. We will all recommend what we have, but in the end of the day buy what it is your budget.

I have seen no performance differences in stainless steal mandrel bent headers, at least nothing that would justify some of the higher costs you see out there.

Some people like to buy American made, and if so, there are a few outstanding options there. There are also a few outstanding options for those that want something more budget friendly.

American Racing Headers are by far the best. Give us a call if you need a set. We can give you a killer deal on a set installed and tuned.

Maryland Speed is having a sale right now on their Kooks LT Headers w/ ceramic coating. This is the exact price I paid and everything. If you’re like me, then you’ll be happy knowing your money was well spent on quality parts behind a great company and top notch customer service.

I wont sit here and lie though, people here have got their headers for nearly half the price with almost the exact same results. Stainlesswork Headers, TSP Headers, etc. Have all had great reviews behind them... so you have to ask yourself this really.

Being that headers are headers and the differences are very small in companies.

Are you more of a peace of mind person? Or best bang for your buck person?
