I bought those for my 94 Z and I would NEVER get pacesetters again. I have heard that they are getting better, the pair I got were a joke. You had to grind out the o2 sensor bung just so the sensors would go in. Plus the flange were the headers meet the y-pipe does not like to stay tight and bolts will just fall out. Also those stupid things leaked everywhere, the welds sucked and I even pulled them off and reinstalled them with about four differant gaskets and they would just not seal up. You can say good bye to that black paint in about 5 min after startup. The paint comes right off, and I am not talking about little flakes. Huge chunks of paint just falls off, I ended up pulling them back off and powdercoating them with a high temp silver which worked well. The little hole for the EGR tube was also way to small and the tube would not even fit, so when you have all this leakage before the o2 sensor the car ran like **** and I wish I never put headers on the car. The car ran 100% better with the stock manifolds, I have since sold the car to one of my buddies and those headers are still leaking till this day.
A very good leason I learned is that you get what you pay for, you pay next to nothing for headers and you get next to nothing. The choice is yours, you know what I would do.

Just thought for the sake of buyers that I would throw this link up here. These are the pacesetters, but make your own decisions. As r6bullets clarified, you can end up with a disaster story, but not everyone will. I've heard a lot of good things about pacesetters, just get them coated.

Cons:
Y-pipe is catless, can be a problem if you have tailpipe emissions
Plug access is going to be difficult
They are not coated, but painted so who knows how long they will stay looking nice
