do you need something that is emissions legal(most states, cali excluded)?

do you want catalytic converters?

do you want to pay more for quality?

do you want a decent header for the money?

do you need to to be a bolt-in thing, with no welding or a trip to the exhaust shop?

all of these are questions you need to ask yourself. there are several manufacturers of long-tube headers for our trucks.

Dynatech-Supermaxx
Stainless Works
Pacesetter

i bought some pacesetters and after seeing them in person, im not very impressed with the build quality, i personally wouldnt sell something of that quality

Best?? Dynatech.

I agree with nightrunner. Paces look like they are made in Japan.

Since your name is RichieRich I bet $ is no issue. The Dynatech's, ASM's, Stainless Works all look like great headers.
