Default BBK shortie headers any input

I got my new mid america catalog and they have the BBK headers in there for $499 anyone have these. In the picture they look as nice as the B&B ones and they are 1 3/4.

I saw these too and thought this would be a great alternative to the B&B headers. Are the BBK Ceramic (jet) coated? Are they Carb Certified?

I think they are coated. I don't know about CARB certified. What is CARB certified? But I'm also interested, just have to decide between long tube and short tube. Will probably go with the long. Thats what I'm used to ;) :lol:

I wouldn't buy anything from BBK!
There customer service is non existent! And there product is CRAP!
If you live in CA. the B&B triflow meet emissions.
If you put headers on! Be ready to replace your spark plug cables, the cable are too close and will burn! Unless you shield them or get angled boots!
Best of luck!
