Re: pace setter headers vs hooker headers

I spent some time trying to figure what LT to buy, then I found a slightly used set with Y-pipe for $400. So I cant complain about price. My Hookers are treating me right, fitment was a sinch, slid right in with almost no effort.

Re: pace setter headers vs hooker headers

I've done just about every header on the market at one time or another. I would definetly say to go with the pacesetters. Installation was by far the easiest of all the long tubes. They fit great and plug access is great. The flanges are thicker, and it seems that someone actually thought about the headers before they made them. By that I mean that they fit so good. Pacsetter definetly has my vote!

Well I got mine from a guy up in New York who priced matched Texas Speed's price at the time, but I didn't have to pay sales tax through him as oppossed to Texas Speed. But www.ls1speed.com has a sale right now on coated Pacesetter LT's for $374 plus shipping. I bet you could get them there for close to what I got mine for.

I got mine off ebay new for like $250, never put them on though, but they looked like a very nice piece.

Re: pace setter headers vs hooker headers

I bought pacesetters and i bolted in the passenger side first and they go in farly easy but they are WAY to CLOSE to the motor mount(trip the knock sensor it will) and the A/C lines. i riped that header out and returned them and bought KOOKS. the pacesetter coating isnt that thick, alot of factory flaws in the coating as well (my headers atleast) you diffenetly pay for what you get. You should think about that too. if you have a stainless catback save the money and go for stainless headers.
