I would suggest BBK. I dont have any experience with them but I have installed SEVERAL sets of MAC headers on many different years of stangs. I have had fitment issues with quite abit of them. Mostly rubbing the steering column or the passenger side of the engine bay.


My long tubes just happened to have PERFECT fitment, though the "Ceramac" coating left something to be desired.

I was thinking BBK, but I can get a discount on Hooker Headers. Would they be just as good?

well hooker headers are to me the most well known headers, so they're obviously good tho.
they're just expensive when compared to bbk.
either get hooker, bbk, or im sure the frpp ones are good also.

Alright. I have a discount through NAPA and I don't think they sell BBK. They carry Hedman Hedders, but I thinkI can order Hooker Headers through them. I just haven't found any Hooker Headers for the 94-95 Mustang GTs.

yeah i doubt hooker and hedman make some for the 94-95's.
if you eliminate the egr you can just get some fox headers. but im not sure how to do that.

Cool Sig pic McQueen

I would also consider the coating that you are getting....

I had Mac HTS Coated, they were rusted in less than 6 months......My BBK Ceramics still look brand new after a year!
