I just bought a set of Dynomax headers off E-bay for a good price. I priced jet-hot ceramic coating for them and it will cost $270.00. Are these headers worth the extra expense or should I just buy a set of Holly's already coated for $199.00 and resell the dynomax?
Or, is there something better? I know Hookers are extremely good, but the price kinda prohibits them.

Jegs sells the ceramic coated dynomax headers for $230, so it probably makes more sense to re-sell the painted headers...

Another alternative is to blast the cheap paint off them and paint them with Eastwoods Stainless Exhaust paint. That stuff lasts long and can be touched up if scratched.

Flowtech makes a decent set of headers for the $. You can get them from Advance, JC Whitney, and maybe even autozone stores. I know jegs and summit have them as well. Not a big selection of tube sizes.

I guess headers are not something people in general get a lot of experience with. You buy a set and that is pretty much it. If anyone has experiance with multiple brands, please give me a hint which are considered the best in general and also the best in your opinion.
Thanks for the responses so far.
