Message: when I was looking for headers, I looked at a bunch of different brands. I couldn't get myself to spend the extra $$ for the Mopar Performance ones, yet I wasn't going to settle for the cheap Pace-setter ones. I settled on a middle ground (price and performance wise) and bought Edelbrock headers. The flange on them is nice and thick, and I haven't had any problems with leaks. I talked to a few people about the Pacesetter ones (which are about the cheapest ones you can find. Some dude sells them dirt cheap on Ebay), and looked up some specs, and found that the material quality and such just wasn't there and other guys had problems with leaks from the paper-thin flange.
I like my Edelbrocks, but I'll admit that they might not be the best...just the best I was willing to pay for. Whatever you choose, the consensus seems to be that headers are a good mod to tie everything else together (intake, TB, etc...). I know some of my mods became more noticable after I threw the headers on. Good luck!
