I'm just the opposite. All I will use now are Kooks or Furo headers because the quality is superior and they fit like Ford put them on the car. Every set of MACs that I've owned fit like shit. BBKs don't fit the best either but they do fit better than MAC and the quality is better too. Flowtech's fit good but have thin flanges that warp. Blackjack and Dynomax are in the same boat as the Flowtech's. Hooker is slightly better in both fitment and quality than Flowtech. Bassani sucks. They sit too low and don't fit for shit. They rust easily too.

Haven't had experience with bassani, but thats pretty my view, you seem to like to type more than me though

1993lxnotch · May 14th, 2009, 02:54 PM

So im going to go with kooks furo or bbk pretty much in that order....thanks for all the input guys.

baine21225 · May 14th, 2009, 04:08 PM

no problem, good choice

89LX347 · May 14th, 2009, 06:30 PM

ask most anyone and they will tell you kooks hands down. im about to order some, but also waiting for that used set that comes around once and a while

MStang91 · May 14th, 2009, 07:27 PM

they look good but OBX is a cheap company and like everyone says.. "you get what you pay for" hopefully the fitment is good!

superbean · May 14th, 2009, 09:40 PM

fuck it, run summit headers. 89 bucks and they work.

When they rust or warp, you toss them and get another set after a few years

how many people on here even have the same car after 3 years? lol

as far as affordable headers i've always preferred MAC, but that could be partly because they are the only decent header to fit gt40p heads.

Ive had mine for 12 years and counting. Not worth much dollar wise but has a bunch of memories to go with it. Im hoping Chip Foose will overhaul it one day. LOL!!!

1993lxnotch · May 15th, 2009, 05:38 PM

we all dream of that!!!! Is that show overhauled still on?

mustangboy8909 · May 15th, 2009, 06:01 PM

yeah they look good but you can get like bbks for close to the ame price as long as you dont go with the ceramic coated ones then they get quite expensive

baine21225 · May 15th, 2009, 09:15 PM

if your going ceramic coated type money then just spend the extra cake and get the kooks
