What DOHC headers are available?
I know the Pacesetter headers are still for sale, does anyone know of any others? I've never been very happy with Pacesetter's quality and would like to have a choice.
thanks

corksport finally has the genie headers in again....i literally have bugged them since LAST year about these. looking forward to seeing how they perform - they're on their way south... 
:
i *think* they got a small supply, so you may want to act quick if you want 'em.

so Jay, whens the next trip to the dyno? 
I was thinking of having my RMM header copied by a shop (it's was a loooooong term thought) good mid and top end. Perfect fit. only downfall is the spring bolted ball joint. I hate those things. finally found a place that has nice shorty flex pipes. $75 installed, as soon as i have $75 burning a hole in my pocket, it's on there.
Gude also made a racing header, never saw any charts or specs of it though.

not soon enough
ideally i'd like to dyno my car (again) at a local shop, put on the headers, then go for another dyno.... possibly tuning the cam gears as well. it's too bad markp at SWATPerformance closed his shop already 
...he was the easiest going tuner i think i could find - with the BEST dyno price
