Jason,
Performance wise Id go Leach, except they are only mild steel with a chrome
plating and will eventually rust. Depends on your "weather" conditions. My
plated steel Hookers only lasted about 6 years before the rust caused some
leakage (I live by the beach). Also, In CA I dont think the Leach headers
are CARB approved for 97-99 Daks, At least not for CA R/Ts... But they will
probably make the most power...

I have heard about a Mopar set going for about 430 + shipping..... If I
am correct it is just stainless steal, not ceramic coating. Either way
it sounds like the better deal, and it doesn't require a group buy......
Does anyone have performance per dollar thoughts on this???? Can anyone
give testimony to whether the JBA headers will out perform the Mopar
headers for the dollar???? I would like to hear about the performance
increase the Dak owners have had using JBA headers, and maybe someone
with the Mopar headers could give theirs' as well..... Thanks.....

        I don't know if you guys are sold on the JBA's, but for the
price, the
        MOPAR/LEACH is a great performer, tri-y design AND it comes with
a
        Y-PIPE (mandrel bent of course)and a lifetime warranty. IMHO I
wouldn't
        use any other. Alan S.

        I called Mr. Jeff Bells inquiring about our DML group purchase
for the
        JBA headers. He referred me to Joe at ex. 104. It seems Joe
will be
        handling the purchase of the headers for the DML buyers. He
quoted me a
        price of $398 in change for stainless non-ceramic coating, and
$133 in
        change or $130 something in change for the ceramic coating plus
$16 for
        shipping & handling. I asked him for a time frame or deadline
of
        purchase. He was going with the past group buy. It seems there
was a
        30 day type of arrangement???? I just wanted to pass the info
on.
        Thanks....
