My '77 has a 350, has an auto, HAD A/C, and came with Hooker side mount headers and side pipes. It all works great.

I have a cracked Manifold on the passenger side, thats why the headers, I don't want side pipes. I looked on the Jet Hot web site and they said the Hooker headers will not fit on a Auto with a 400 Turbo trans....are they speaking of the complete dual system they sell or just the headers?

Sanderson headers...ceramic coated. Best quality you can get. Thickest flanges you ever saw and the bolts don't back out.

are the sandersons better than Hookers? If so, why? How much should I expect to spend on either? I have a 1970 350 T400. I am not going with sidepipes.
