Who makes good headers? Suggestions?

Going to redo my exhaust on my 406 small block. I have aluminum heads that run angle plugs so i need headers that will clear the plugs. Anybody get a good set from someone that was reasonable priced? I have ran different ones over the years but would like to hear from you. If you have pics of the headers post them please.

i've always been pleased with hooker super comps and hedmann, but no matter what you end up running, invest in ceramic coating of some sort, otherwise they will rust through. NO paint will last a reasonable amount of time.

I bought a set of Doug Thorley's a few years ago and the quality and fit was good. I decided to go back to the stock exhaust set up on my 402BB.
