ARH, Kooks, or nothing at all. BBK is crap! Don't put that junk on your cobra.

They are about 1,500 but they also come with a matching midpipe. The headers and midpipe are both 304 stainless steel so they will last as long as the car and you wont have to worry about them rusting. Do it once and do it right. I have them on my car with the ford racing stage 8 locking header bolts. Check out lethalperformance.com That's where I get all my stuff from.

Well when you buy longtubes you need to buy a new "Short" Midpipe. Your catback will work with the new "Short" X or H.
