Flowtech Anygood?

Well my 97 has the infamous rusted manifolds and bolts so i decided to put a set of shortys on...and just wondering what you guys think of these

http://www.holley.com/91670FLT.asp

i know they are not PERFORMANCE headers...but my truck isnt exactly throwing major horsepower anyways...all the mods i have done are in the signature...so.

so just wondering if maybe i can get a better set for same price?...my uncle is getting these from a warehouse he knows for $299CANADIAN.

i think it sounds like a pretty decent deal...but thought i would check with you guys first.

THNX

Flowtech is kinda hit or miss from what I've heard...

I have Flowtech headers on my '77 and they seem to be fine. Made a major difference and the install was very easy.

I have flowtech long tube headers on my rig. Great performance for the money. I'd highly recommend stripping the stock paint and repainting with a high quality VHT or powdercoating for enhanced rust protection.

I bought a set of summit shorty headers once. They had flowtech stamped on the flange. They did "pretty much" bolt right on. 4' crow bar helped tweak the exhaust a bit though. They were close.
