Meh...
MAC Ceramic Long Tube headers 2.5 collector fits 1999-2004 Cobra, Speed Concepts
And they came with header bolts.
EDIT - though they didn't come with gaskets, so that is a $20 difference or so

Im using factory bolts bc there studs n have a notch on them and they cant back out or become loose, also im using ford oem metal gaskets i think there better n will bolt up good to the thich flanges on these pacesetters
these r 3 inch collector as well! and the matchin xpipe is nice

Been hearing good things about these headers... May have to pick some up! They look like solid headers for the price.
There is no comparison.
The Pacesetters are better in every way, and even have 3" Collectors.
They also provide the best ground clearance, out of any header available.
I currently run these on my '04...and have had many sets of MAC, BBK etc over the years, trust me, these are the best headers under $800.
I skipped the Armor Coat and did a bronze high-temp coating myself:

What gaskets did u go with?? Any recommendations on install? Lol
Thanks
I would recommend factory exhaust gaskets.
I ordered new set oem gaskets today, and i got the matching xpipe as well
Also i seen in instructions to use high temp sealant as well? Did u do that?

I used factory Ford Gaskets. I will never use anything else.
For the "bolts"....I just re-used the factory studs, as that is the best IMO.
I did not use any type of sealant, RTV etc... Just cleaned the surfaces and installed.

I put these on my car a few weeks back along with a k member. They look great I only have one complaint, the pass side hits the rear mounting pad for the k member, I trimmed it some but it just barely rubs still. Other than that they fit great and I'm running a c4 with a jw bell housing and from the looks it will come out without having to unbolt the headers. As soon as I finish my tvs and fuel system ill find out what they sound like. Here are some pics.

nice!
Kelly, that bronze coating came out really nice. Anxious to hear how these Pacesetters sound.
There is a pretty lengthy thread (with install hints) in the exhaust section. I have them, they sound great (although I went from stock to full headers - catback all at once) and I had zero fitment issues with the stock trans.
