The driver side manifold is the exact same geometry as the standard Hooker exhaust manifold, excluding the outlet design of course.

Toddoky, what is Hookers solution for relocation of the A/C Compressor?

Toddoky

To do as we did with the Fox body Mustang swap application, which is to locate/attach the turbo on the driver side of the engine and mount the A/C compressor to the passenger side cylinder head like depicted in these two photos.

Guess I'm a little slow where do I route the 4in exhaust system out to the rear?

Toddoky

That would depend on the particular car and front suspension you have. In the case of a Fox Body Mustang, you could route that through an aftermarket K-member if you were using one. Some cars might require more work/creativity to get that done, like modifying the inner fenders and/or firewall to create the routing space needed for the down-pipe.

So does this setup work with a 1st gen camaro with stock steering box?

Todd has said that the manifold in the kit will not fit with a stock steering box. You may be able to use a stock manifold or one of Holley's mid-length headers.

A gen 4 fbody fits without shield but Is close.
Do they sell the kit separately like that with no driver manifold ?

M_Minnick

Yes, you can purchase just the passenger manifold for $299. The crossover is available seperately.

Heck yes! Thanks for the pictures. I have the Hooker longtubes on my 240SX but I'm thinking about doing a turbo swap in the winter. I want to use these manifolds.

have you guys put one of these yet in a 4th gen fbody? does the a/c have to go? looks like it, just want to confirm.

Toddoky

They've not been test fit for installation in a 4th-gen at this point in time, but the stock low-mount A/C compressor would definitely not be able to be used with the turbo manifolds as they occupy the same space.

What exact kind of pipe is anyone or someone using to connect to the 3" v band ?
$299 isn't a bad price for that passenger log.
Also what do you think is the hp level of this log is before let's say it's restricting flow?

M_Minnick

iTrader: (1)

You can just run any 3" pipe with a V-band on it. As far as horsepower capability, it will be good for well over 1000rwhp, based on other log manifold results.

Would really like to see this in a 4th gen fbody while using a regular exhaust. Might make it work with a turbo k member?

Since you have the Driver side Holley manifold mounted can you measure the distance from the manifold to the frame(where the stock steering box would go) . I know there are different mounts and I'm sure Holley did their homework but I'm really hoping there is enough room.

Thanks

Yenko, just use a different manifold for a 1st gen if that's what you have.

I don't have the manifold mocked up any more, but I can get a measurement for you when I re-install it in a month or so.

Yenko68

I can wait that long and it would be appreciated since I'm only reading all the swap books to gather part#'s and info to hopefully save time from making too many errors.

The only other manifold I have is the stock 2009 G8 GT manifold and I have yet to get the motor or trans into my car for a mock-up. Depending how far from the block the Hooker header sticks out I can determine if the stock G8 is larger or smaller than the Hooker manifold.

Thank you
