Default Hooker side pipe question
I need new side tubes. I'm wondering if I can use the stainless tubes with my Jethot-coated BB headers or is the SS wall thickness different? If anyone has one of the SS sidetubes, can you measure the ID of the tube and post it?

TIA for any replies!

I mounted mine last week so I can't give you the ID of the collector side that slips over the pipe, but the ID of the end of the SS pipe (exit side) is 3 & 15/16's inches. Does that help?
