Default Has Anybody Used These Yet

I was at LS Fest on 5/6/17 and saw this there

https://holley.com/products/exhaust/.../parts/8510HKR

It looked real nice and priced at $449.

It seemed to have a lot of options for turbo position as well.

The Hooker REP said they were developing different X-over tubes as
well as turbo mounting options.

The A/C would have to be high mounted on Passenger side.

I noticed there was good clearance for the spark plug wires as well.

I dig it. Only thing that would be a drag for me is downpipe clearance with the collector pipe being in the way. I could only get away with it if using a dump pipe near the front. Not a fan of that on a street driven vehicle. I am also wondering how much/if any lower the collect pipe would sit than a F-Body Pan...Anyone know?

I placed an order on May 1st, which was the first day they were available to order. It said they would be available on the 15th, and that date has pushed forward every day by one day. They also do not have the coated versions on their site yet.

Late reply but this set up fit my 67 A body. Tons of room on the driver side and clears the steering shaft. Passenger side is tight but it fits. I was even able to run a 4” down pipe between the frame rail and the hooker cross over pipe.

I used the ICT Billet motor mount plates with energy Suspension SB poly mounts and factory frame mounts

Engine Masters just did a show where they used these on a mild 5.3L build.
