Holley has never been a header type company, so I usaully tend to stay away from those products. For example, Edelbrock makes headers but every knows it's not their speciality. I usaully buy products from the companies the do it best, like I wouldn't buy anything other than an Edelbrock intake. But the Flowtech's could be very good, I don't know. Just my opinion. Good luck with your choice :cheers:

I put Flowtechs on my 72 in spring of 99. I also had them JetHot treated. I have no complaints.

I am waiting to hear from a guy who was going to sell me his headers and sidepipes. If the deal does not go through I am going to try the ceramic coated flowtechs. I can get them from autozone for $170. :cool:

That's why I avoid Edelbrock like the plague, they just make too much stuff. I do''t see where that is good for quality. I may be paranoid but I stick to companies that specialize in what they sell.

You don't buy bread from the dentist either :)

A lot of the aftermarket companies buy their products from other comapanies (even competitors) and market them under their own brand name! The whole industry is moving in this direction just to have bragging rights to having a complete line up of products.

Summit brand headers are made by Flowtech too and they are only like $80-90. I have a set on my 76 400sb and I've got no complaints.

Summit does that big time, but they also have great customer service so if there is a problem they will make it right, at least that is my experience.
