Long tube headers JBA vs. Hooker

I tried a search and found a lot of info on JBA's, but not much about Hooker Headers? Should the lack of info on Hooker headers be the answer to this next question? Which is better JBA or the Hooker's. I like the price of the Hooker headers, but I am a firm believer in "you get what you pay for" Am I right on this?

If you want the "best" in terms of quality dont go with either, if you want the next "best" while still being affordable pick Hookers.

I was where you were 2 months ago. I chose for my value and quality SLP at lmperformance.com I got the headers, x pipes and cats out the door for 1K on sale. That saved me almost a 1/3 over other headers.

very happy, easy install, no tweeking of em. If you get a frame up lift, you don't have to remove the starter, just the steering stuff. You may have to tweek your tune, Bama did mine. I have read a few places that LT's make you run a tad lean. Your call on that one. Even with all my mods, I am still getting 23 mpg at 70mph with ac on. Good quality stuff and LMPerformance is good folks to work with. They are resolving an issue with a rear black out panel on my wife's GTCS..
