Hooker Sidepipes + TFS angle-plug heads?
I was set to purchase Hooker sidepipes, but noticed that they list "will not fit angle plug heads" as a footnote. I have Trickflow heads, with angle plugs.....dang! 
Does this mean I'm outta luck, or ??? Anybody running angle plugs and these headers + sidepipes??
Thanks...

Not all angle plug heads are the same. SO...as a general statement I'll say your fitment is a toss of the dice. You can make them work. Some guys say theirs work fine with Side Pipes. Some have had to dimple the header tube. After a mock up, I found only the #4 cylinder tube had to be dimpled in about 3/16" for me to remove the plug from my AFR's.
You decide if you want to dent that new shinny header....

My Hooker header/sidepipe setup worked fine with my AFR angle plug heads, some dinging required. No problems at all really with the plug wires. The #2 pipe needed some dinging on the inside and the stearing box needed some work with the pipe coming close.
