No, FR is a bit more expensive. Sikky is cheaper but they use cheap shit. I bought my Sikky kit and the slip yoke was rusty on the outside and inside along with two of the AN fittings for the oil pan to the remote filter with "china" stamped on the side, whereas quality brand fittings have their logo/name stamped, aka FPS, XRP, Earls, etc. Also frustratingly, I lost my trans mount bracket in moving, I called them asking for a replacement and they couldn't find records of me buying it, so I fortunately got lucky with Hooker selling me a prototype bracket they made right after they finished making their kit for the swap. I will say, however, if you're gonna make any power, the Hooker headers are what you want as they all have 1 7/8" primaries vs. others 1 3/4" or smaller primaries. Sikky has a 1 7/8" option but that goes to a 3.5" collector and whothefuck wants to run a 3.5" exhaust or reduce it to a 3"? Doubly, Sikky's headers point 'inward' toward the trans some whereas Hooker's go straight back. It's just Hooker's kit kinda sucks IMO and places the engine higher (as high as Sikky's kit).
