I like Hookers!!!!!!!!

I do too!

And Hooker headers ain't bad, either! :D:D:D

Actually, I'm running TPIS long tubes and I'm very happy with them as they fit up nice and snug. I didn't want a flanged collector for my application.

Very, few if any mass header manufacturers make headers that have equal length tubes which is required for max header perfromance. Note the tubes in the pics. I had a set of Hooker supercomps for my 73 Mustang 351 and one tube was 7 inches longer than the rest. Another was 4 " inches longer than the remaining two pipes.

If you can find true equal length headers, buy them. I like the DRMs because they fit well, have the air pump fittings and are stainless. They aren't cheap but I think they are worth the extra $$$$.

Re: Header Comparison; (BobMachus)

Sorry guys. Those aren't mine. WHen I get mine in the spring I'll have some girlie shots for you...maybe some upostables to go along with them.

The Jeal headers are imported from Europe and they have to be ordered to cover the tolling cost and also the import duties. So 2x a year they're ordered.
