AIR fittings and the EGR fitting were cracking off AFTER 3 MONTHS. Lets talk about quality there. Do some searching on LS1Tech on Pacesetter. They have their ups, they have their downs. Lets look at what these cost compared to a stainless header. A hell of alot less. If you want a header that will last 20 years and you live near alot of salt. Yes stainless will prevail. I was very pleased by what I saw when I pulled my Pacesetters out of the box. Thick beads, good trail. If you dont feel you will be happy with the Paces, go with another brand. Dont listen to a person that doesnt own them already. Just listen and watch the threads from those who have some or have them installed. See what they have to say. But my 2 cents, Im not paying $800+ dollars for headers. Period. Those who want to melt their credit card buy Dynatech.
I have had mine on for like 6 months and they still look as good as the day i put them on. i installed them in about 3 hours and that was including the time it took to find tools i clumsily misplaced and such. I give pacesetter 2 
up. i like them and they sound purty good.
