Ya, saw those too. I picked up a set of Hooker Super Comps for a Camaro... I'm going to see how well they fit. One Hooker tech says no chance, the other one I talked to which is supposed to the be the "Hooker header guru" said "All I can say is that they should fit"

495 is for non coated btw.

I can only assume the Hooker mounts would place the engine like BRP. If Hooker does not offer a modded oilpan, then I doubt their mounts require it

All in fun MrDude.

S&P, BRP, ATS, Hooker, etc are all motor mount kits... All bolt into factory holes except for BRP maybe one other...

In order of pimp/bling/quality factor.... ATS, Hooker, S&P, BRP.
