Thats what I thought, wow is the muffler insert tiny. The collectors and pipes are 4 inches in diameter, but that hole is under 2 inches. It's VERY quiet with the inserts in.

Those are the most restrictive inserts Hooker sells. So called "reverse flow" but not really reverse if you cut one open. Someone here just did that.

Classic Chambered sells "Vettepacks" for Hookers. He does inserts for quite a few Cobras and Vettes. Utube has video clips but it is hard to know exactly what your car will sound like.

I agree. Back in the day, Hooker made that style of headers for a number of GM cars, Pontiac Trans Ams, included. I had a set of them on the T/A that I owned, back then, and I had both the "glass pack" inserts, as well as the "reverse flow" inserts, and yeah, the inlets in RV inserts were that small.........

I always heard it in the context of what to do with a big tax refund or retirement funds: "I'm gonna do the sensible thing and spend it on hookers and blow."

I prefer Russian's....and they are not cheap!

Throw those inserts as far as you can toward a cold roll steel bit.......they are terrible.

Those Hooker "quiet" inserts are such a terrible design. First the exhaust hits a huge wall, then like Play Dough, squeezes it into the internals of the cartridge. Ugh.
