I have a 1989 Vette. I was wondering if you guys had some info about some headers. I am looking at the Hooker Super Comps. What do you think about them? Full length or mid length? Are there any clearance problems? Any other headers that you would suggest?

Hooker is the only brand id trust for the prices they sell them at. Be sure to get them ceramic coated. Goodluck

I think with the Hookers you have to fashion an alternator mount. My plans been to get the unpainted Hookers and have them Swain tech coated. There is a nice deal going on now in C4 parts for a Melrose system. That's a sweet setup! I will probably go that route instead once I save up.
