Hooker's high style design is tuned for low & midrange street performance

Street rod owners who have installed a LS-1 or derivative engine and need maximum frame rail clearance with complete access to engine mounts and starter. NOTE: For proper fit of these Hooker Headers, engine swap relocation mounts (12611HKR) should be used to ensure proper location of engine into chassis. NOTE: Hooker recommends the use of multi-angle spark plug wires for this application (example - MSD-32819). WARNING! Breaking in an engine with ceramic-coated headers WILL result in damage to the coating and will VOID all warranties. Ceramic-coated headers require several heat cycles to fully cure before they will withstand extreme heat. HOOKER recommends using a cast-iron exhaust manifold or an old header to break in new engines to avoid coating damage.
