And obviously the design is lacking fitment issues.

I dunno, I just wouldn't buy them. [/B]
The make the same , if not more HP , then the SLP headers that cost A fraction of what SLP headers cost . I dont know man , its preference . If you got money to burn buy something els . If you want something good for cheap , bye the pacesetters . I dont think you wil regret it .
So the wasnt buffed and shined to look like million dollar headers ! who cares ?

A/C line on the back of the compressor had to be bent (alot) to clear the #2 primary.

The collectors are up against the floorpan heatshields when installed. You can bend up the heatshields, but there is still hardly any floorboard clearance. Also, the y-pipe was ON the floor, no clearance at all.

I would buy Hookers or Jet-hots any day over these.

my jethots did the same thing.........had to bend the a/c line.......and had to shave transmission crossmember because the header pounts straight into it, even with brand new motor mounts.

not to mention how i hate the stupid slipfit design.

i would never buy jethots again, ever.
