I bought the Hooker Super Competition Ceramic Coated Long tube Headers and Love them!!! I just have always been a big fan with all of Hookers products and decided to go with the old school header......I have a video below of the Hookers, no cats, custom x-pipe, and flowmaster 40 series mufflers...

The exhaust no longer sounds like this anymore since I installed those darn loud thumpin things called Hot Rod cams....LOL but I hey I love them and they are freakin loud...Hope you enjoy.

With headers, x-pipe, flowmasters:

Well all I can do is speak from my experience. I had to do the job twice because I went with Pypes LTs. And it took me one month to get my replacement on their deffective part. I still have some pictures of what my first set of headers looked like when I got them. Maybe I will try and post them later for you guys. I can assure you that it will make you think twice. Bottom line is I got what I paid for and I learned my lesson.

I'm so glad I went with BBK Ceramic coated lts

the install was pretty straightforward, except for those two bolts that had to be shaved to fit...the quality justifies the price, and the brand is very organized. I considered Hooker, but they were a bit out of my range...grats on the setup tho, i have the same config, except i have slp lms

But yeah, I didnt realize untill i had all the bolts in as well. One I was able to tap and knock in, the other I went to the hardware store and bought a 1/4" shorter bolt.
