Here's an old article I found on the bbk's. Like onederful, I have only good things to say about bbk from previous purchases.
Love my tuned shorties so far...and lets not forget in all this HP hubba, hubba they do improve the looks under the hood as well.
I love when chrome headers start to turn gold/blue from the heat

I had a Pacesetter on my old 2.3L Mustang. Solidly made header for sure, but it was uncoated so it started rusting away from day 1. It fit pretty well though.

Nah, it was a '90 2.3L that I got in high school, drove for 7 years and spent way too much money on. I did have a Turbo Coupe after it, but Pacesetter doesn't make anything for them that I know of.

Thats funny you 2 bought MAC's based on that article. Not saying they aren't good, but they were the only 1 3/4" header in that test. On a boosted car that makes quite the difference.

Also they didn't test ARH
