Default HEADER CHOICES

Apparently the 3 choices are Dynomax, Hedman, & Hooker.
Do all 3 manufacturers use the same thickness flange. I think this could be an important consideration to prevent leakage.

The Hookers Comp headers fit my 75 great. I'm real happy with the Hookers.

I was looking at Hookers for my big block, but was told the jet coating was not so good. I got on to Sanderson headers and they make an awesome product and they are made in the USA!!!! They are block hugger style with 16 gage tubes and 3" collector. Good people to talk to and very helpfull. My BB5 headers cost $435 with the Jet hot coating on, check them out! http://www.sandersonheaders.com Good luck!

I looked at their website, looks like they have one header set for all `55 -:rolleyes: `83 big block vettes, I don't really see how that could be a very good fit. Do they offer more then one for the different styles and they only list the one or what ?
