Default Side Pipes

I am looking into getting side pipes for my '81 vette. I don't really know what I should get, so I am hoping you guys can help me out some. So far, this is what I am looking at:

Hooker Side Pipes

Hooker Super Comp Headers

Thanks

And you know the side pipe price on the link you posted doesn't include the headers, right? That's just the pipes themselves.

your link's to both summit and jegs are for hooker part number 2234 which are the hooker super comp sidemount headers. You still need to buy the side pipes which is also correct in both your links.

I thought they sold the whole thing as a kit but I could be wrong.

:thumbs: JCL is the forum name (and the initials) of the gentleman who owns STS. The baffles have come to be known as JCLs around the forum thanks to Chunk Harmon and his beast of an L88.
