Default Somebody pleas identify these Hooker inserts...

Came with the Hookers...I'll probably use them to start off with, though torn between STS's and Max-Flo's as replacements. Dont want it obnoxiously loud, but dont want to choke the ZZ4 either..

Think a PO drilled the 4 holes in the one end??







Thanks!

SOme funky looking things for sure. I had a set of Hooker mufflers and the inside looked kind of like those, but the tube on one end was offset from center.

Just go with the STS Baffles.

I bought my Hookers new in the early 80s. These were the inserts that came with mine (less the 4 extra holes).

Those are old style original Hooker glasspacks that someone has added four extra holes to.
They don't flow well at all.....
