    Header Question

    I know that i have asked numerous questions about which headers to choose, but i still havent recieved a definitive answer. I have narrowed it down to three headers. The tri-y ($160), heddman long tube ($180), and patriot clippster ($200). Which is best for my 289 automatic v8?
