Default JBA headers on a fox

I am looking at all makes of headers and exhaust components to figure out what I really want to use and am curious what anyone knows about JBA headers. They seem more expensive that most all others that I have looked at for my 89 GT. Are they special for some reason? Or just think they are?

I had them on my last stang. I had replaced the bbks with a set. Only thing I notice was how empty my wallet was.

Excellent quality and they're stainless. FRPP's are cheaper and they're stainless, too.

JBA are excellent quality headers. I've had (2) pairs of them.
I had my second set jet hot coated back in '98 and still look great. A friend bought FMS ceramic coated and although they too are very good in quality, they began to rust where the tubes go into the flanges, after a year. I think most of the high volume headers that are ceramic coated are not coated as well.
