i think you can get hooker headers (not sure of the model number) for $180 at best buy

cool thanks ill look them up on the net hmm im in vic...anyone got these anything good about them?

[eltonz88ragtop]

hey been lookin around the net tonight... is it the Hooker 2460 ur talking about??

what is this chart about on tgo http://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/showthread.php?s=9527e4cdedae45a68d651df373fec51b&threadid=204967

and they talk about fabricating a y pipe.. do i need this? why doesn ti come with it?

also should i have them ceramic coated pros and cons?? thanks

[Dan92Z]

those are good headers, had them on my old iroc, dont need ceramic.. dont waste ur time.. u need to fabricate a Y pipe.. not u personally an exaughst shop.. its included with some header kits... but not that one...


cheap headers
good enough for you tho.. ur not really pushing any power so it will sound awesome and do the trick

Hooker headers for 180 bucks?????? wish i had a 305...actually no i dont... ;D

I dunno, Hooker makes one of the best headers mooolah can buy...at least for the lt1/ls1's anyways...


Most headers should come with a y-pipe, and if they don't get yourself one...kinda defeats the purpose of the heads a bit if ya dont.....and having them ceramic coated keeps the heat inside the heads which makes the exhaust flow faster....inside/outside coated is the best....expensive though

2460 has no Y-pipe and is nice and cheap, no air tubes, but can come with an O2 sensor ( I plan to use these cheapies with my LT1 swap)

2055 has full AIR and comes wth a Y-pipe but are much more expensive.


both are Hookers

headers don't really change the sound of your exhaust all that much, but they are a great power adder, prolly one of the best

[Mr. TroPiCal v.2.0]

Headers will change the sound on the 4th gens quite a bit wont they?

I got some ceramic coated BBK heads w. y-pipe for my lt1 off ebay for 450 Canadian..haven't installed yet
