    They are just the painted ones, not ceramic coated. Go for it if you dont have to worry about road salt or snow.

    I do not think that there would be a difference between ceramic coated and heat painted, except the ceramic ones will keep under the temps down.
    The only thing that I don't like about the heat wrap is it will hold in the moisture in and make the headers become more prone rust since they are just painted. IMO.

    I know a lot of the guys here have Pacesetters. Are these just cheaper because of the paint or are they made more cheaply made?

    The fine print at the bottom of the ad states that the headers are available painted black or in their proprietary Armor Coat ceramic coating. I wonder if theres a price difference, because if not, then this is a great deal

    These are pretty good headers...not the best but good. Ive got them on my truck right now. There are "better" headers out there, but they cost about 3-4 times that amount...people say Kooks are the best and they cost over a grand if I remember correctly.
    I would definitely say that if your somewhere that snows or rains alot to spend the extra monies and get the ceramic coated ones so they dont rust. But if your like me and live where it rains about 3 times a year and never snows then you can get away with the painted ones.

    Exactly. With the ORY they are probably another 150 more...

    The Pacesetter ORY is typically about $115 more. But with how it is slip-fit with band clamps, I would rather not buy the Pacesetter ORY and have an exhaust shop fab up a custom one for me.
