BBK vs MAC Long Tube Headers?

Was looking at AM's website and noticed they are now selling MAC long tube headers. The obvious question is are they (MACs) worth saving a couple bucks on vs the more expensive BBKs? Anyone ran/running MACs? Any feedback appreciated.

I would take BBK over MAC, fitment is typically better. Give us a shout on pricing, we offer some nice little forum discounts

mac at least to me has always been of a lower quality. More drone with their mufflers and fitment on the headers wasn't as good as the BBK stuff.
