Default shorty headers?

About to order some BBK ceramic coated shorties from Brenspeed-

Is there a difference between JBA vs BBK shorty headers?

does it really matter if they are ceramic titanium vs ceramic coated?

BBK's loose a bit up top from the large pipe bend JBA's flow a little bit easier. i would get ceramic they are nice and shinny and will keep the temps down under hood and they wont turn colors like stainless steel

up top? upper RPMs or up top as in top end speed 100-145??

(O_o)?!

I have been trying in vain to find a shop that keep the JBA shorties in stock for a reasonable price and that are willing to ship outside the continental US...

The search goes on!~

Ceramic Titanium and Ceramic Titanium Stainless Steel are the same thing, correct??

The Late Model Restoration has them for sale but they are considerable less then the other sites... just curious if they were the same thing.
