Exotic Muscle, stainless works, TPiS, Hooker

all just fine, but preferably you'd get something that was ceramic-coated inside and out

You mentioned Pacesetters which are shorties. Are you talking about real headers (long tubes) or shorties which offer negliable benefits beyond aesthetics? Are you concerned with proper hook-ups with regards to emissions, etc.? More details are required here.
