Default Hooker Headers advice

I think I am going to go with this one:

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku


What issues to I need to take into account?

Small parts to replace?


Will I be able to us my alternator with the stock brackets or will I have to fab something?


Any other thoughts?


Thanks guys and please have a safe and Merry Christmas. Jack

There is something about Hookers and Christmas that don't mix I guess!

Jack, you'll need to make a standoff for the alt bracket. You can do something very simple like use a steel plumbing coupler from the hardware store and simply cut it to length, then paint it. Autozone should have silver high temp paint that will hold up on the coupler. You have a PM.

I'll match Summit's price on those headers and y-pipe for anyone on this board if they are interested.
