Default 4.6 Long Tube Headers

I was set on buying BBK long tube ceramic headers, untilI came across headers made by CAM that are stainless steel. They claim to be better than ceramic. They are around $100.00 cheaper. Can anybody tell me which is the better brand? Did you have any problems with them? How long did it take to install them?

Thanks.

I personally have not heard of CAM, but stainless steel with a jet hot coating, would be awesome. I have BBK ceramics, and they are OK

i remember cliff saying something like the ceramic coating brings mild steel down the the same heat control ability as the stainless steel, so in all reality ceramic coated stainless steel would be the best.
