Default Hooker headers with Vortec heads?
Any know issues with mounting Hooker super comp sidemounts on a crate 383 stroker with vortec heads?

I got two opinions, one good, one I didnt care for.

Thx,
Bob

vortec exhaust ports are no different than any other standard GM smallblock ports. Should work just fine

I just bolted up Hooker sidemounts to my Fast Burn (vortec-style) aluminum heads. No issues at all.
