Hooker makes good quality stuff. I love there cat back. Just make sure there coated and not just painted. Unless you like the look of rusted headers lol.

I agree, my Jet-Hot coated Hooker LTs have been on my car since 2002 and still look nice. This is one set of headers that requires no grinding to the block or k-member. Just lift the car up about 3 feet and they slid right in.

You could go this route and have the room to grow in the future (heads/cam, stroker, nitrous, etc)! There are a few threads near the top in this section going right now where guys have installed them and not had any noticeable loss in power down low and significant gains up top!

Let me know if I can help
