PaceSetter 72C1205 (the armor coat stuff) worthwhile for 350?

[Bigjoe980]

Buddy of mine is offered em to me for 350 (new, I should mention), since I was complaining about my gtp being rather silent. Figured they'd be nice to have around for when I actually get to doing an exhaust.. Eh, quality isn't of such huge concern to me, I mean, I expect them to be simplistic... but somewhat inferior obviously. Are the leaks really that terrible, or atleast considering the price, should I even complain? I know my way around a welder, soo...

I haven't seen any decent reviews myself for these, just the normal black ones, and I guess I didn't search well enough here maybe?... And google got me to nothing but exagerated whining on both extremes, likely from people who've never even touched them *laughs* I'm honestly just wondering if you guys think I should just save my money for other stuff, but since I'm not looking to far into mods..

Opinions? concerns? general hate for them? lol

either I missed something again or I just read through those 17 pages for the 3rd time and gained little to nothing, lol. I saw mentions at best

Pacesetter Headers starting at $349 found at W Body Store and others
Pros: 1.75" primaries, can be bolt in
Cons: Most have sealing issues, mild steel, most have them welded
This is the part I thought might help. There are a lot of different headers out for our cars and all them have different challenges to overcome.

I have the Ceramic Coated Pacesetters, love em', still looking good too after 2 years! Ceramic coating is nice, retains the heat when running...

That's a slam dunk price, take em!
You'll be happy...

If not, sell em', as the Ceramic Coated Pacesetters you can't find anymore.
