Default JBA headers

Do you have JBA headers on your C4 vette? If so, do you like them. Does anyone have any information on the brand? I found them while browsing for headers on the internet. Any input would be appreciated. They are cat forward headers...so I am pretty sure that means that they are "long tube". AM I RIGHT????!

I have the JBA's. I didn't really notice any extra performance. The coating stays pretty on them but they are short and not equal length. They are CARB legal so for me that was priority here in CA. If I didn't have to worry about that I would go for some equal length long tube.
