Probably another header question

Ok, so i have a cracked exhaust manifold on the passenger side, so I am replacing both sides with shorty headers. I'd narrowed it down to the PaceSetter or HedMan Hedders.

The PaceSetters are cheaper and have thicker tubes and flanges (16 ga. steel and 3/8in flange) , but everyone i've talked to says Hedman Headers have been around a while and they carry a lifetime warrenty (but are 18 ga. steel with 1/4 in. flanges)

Any goods, bads, opinions, anything before I order?

I just installed PaceSetter long tubes and the 3/8 flanges are nice, perfectly flat and strong. Just what you need to keep leaks away! I used Fel-Pro gaskets though not what came with them, and Permatex Ultra Copper just for extra insurance.

I'll see if I can barrow a camera and get some vid. It sounds better than I thought it would.
