I was using a set of Dynomax like Bill and highly recomend them, after 7yrs they held up well and had no real issues installing plugs. Getting the ceramic coated is also a plus in keeping the heat down in the engine compartment and hold their looks far better than any plain steel headers that rust up usually in no time.

The ceramic coating is holding up great ,I had some problems with a broken motor mount that caused a scratch in the right side used some Hi temp coating still holding up OK.
The truck is my daily driver but looks like this now.

I use Hooker supercomp in my 2wd stepside (auto) and Hooker Compitition in my 72 Blazer 4wd (4 speed). They both are great fits and I highly recommend them. I have used the Flowtech and some other brand that hung way too low and would bottom out on my stepside. After I put the hookers in, there is no chance of draging and I never had a header that fit in so easy. Here is a picture of the headers on my stepside.
