Default Edelbrock Headers

Has anybody used the Edelbrock shorty headers? I was looking into a shorty for simplicity sake, and these are 1-5/8 versus the 1-1/2 I think for the Pacesetter. Anybody have any experience with them?
Thanks.

I have set on my truck. They were simple bolt-on. I got the ceramic coated. Looks good.

Real good quality and easy install. Make sure to get the ceramic coated ones. I think there is more power as soon as I find out about this pre-CAT issue...
