Got a set of hooker headers/sidpipes on my 76 with a 454 bbc swap. They fit perfect. Do not know what inserts are in it, got the set used.

I have Hookers no problem with fit but I got chrome and they started rusting three weeks after I bought them. I just sent them out for ceramic coating and that brought them back to life Im liking the hookers again I just wish it didnt cost me 800 to fix them

Thanks for all the input. I went with Doug's Chrome headers and sidepipes. Ordered them from JEGS they were at my door in two days no shipping charge. Did not even have time to make-up a story to my wife on what the big purchase was.

I will report on fit or lack there of in a few months. I am doing a BBC swap in a 74. Now in process of ordering 5 speed tranny looking the Kiesler

Happy New Year All
