Best Long Tubes For Fitment?

Hey guys, my next buy this weekend is going to be a nice set of longtubes and a midpipe to connect to my MAC Catback. I have an Automatic so my choice are limited, (JBA, SLP, MAC as far as I know) and anyone who has experience with long tubes and Auto's I'd be happy to hear! I was thinking the SLP's??
SLP Mustang Long Tube Headers M30000 - Free Shipping!

I want them to come ceramic coated, but I've heard lots of things about exhaust leaks doing headers and midpipes. Any thoughts?

I don't have expirience with long tubes, but i do know that if you ever need to remove your trans, you will have to pull one header out to gain access, and space with most brands!!

I haven't swapped to longtubes because of two things. 1 being the e test, i use my stock h pipe for e testing, and 2 cause i do not want to go threw the hassel of removing longtube headers when it comes time to do the clutch.
I'm really not too hard up on making a few hp more just to have a few extra headaches. My GT made just shy of 300 without longtubes as it sits, all i wanted is a 300 hp car, so basically i am there, and i am happy. LOL!
