Default Headers, Mac or BBK?

Just wondering if anyone thinks there is a big difference between the Mac abd BBK LT's. I am going to get one of the to and I was wonderng what everyone prefers. The BBK are around $475-$500, and I think the Mac's go for $375-$400. I know a lot of people aroung here are going to say get JBA or SLP LT's but I don't wanna spend $700-$800 on headers when they are all mandrel bent 1 5/8", I can't imagine that I am paying an extar $400 for anything more than a name and 1 or 2 HP with the JBA or SLP's. I haven't heard anythin bad about the Mac's, so that's what I am leaning towards, just let me know what you guys think or have heard about the Mac or BBK LT's.

I love my macs. They are just as good as any of the others including slp and the likes. Get the ceramic coated it will stay nice for a long time.

Go w/ the macs ceramic coated. You'll be happy as well as the price won't break the bank. I've had no problems. Forewarned though, be prepared to spend alittle money having them installed($300-500) 5-8 hour job w/ good tools and a cherry picker.....If you or your freinds Know how to do this, be prepared for a long day.
