headers: monza vs racing beat

i know the racing beat headers are better quality, but is there any real difference in flow between the two? are the rb headers going to make more power on a 12a than the monza headers?

I have one of each. I haven't noticed any performance difference between the two. Of course I've never installed them. They just hang on the garage wall.

Ive heard with the monza that over time the exhaust actually will melt through the header walls... Check out my sig's picture of my RB header and presilencer, I ordered a rb muffler after I heard how freaking loud it was

^ditto^

as with all headers, wheather for piston engines or rotarys, the best ones are made with equal length tubing.
