Default How do you attach the seperate header on Hookers?
I am thinking of buying a set of Hooker headers and the picture shows one of the tubes is not connected. What is needed to connect the upper part to the lower part that goes into the collector? I am confused and have never seen this before, but I am new to LS1 headers, is this normal?
Thanks in advance
Matt

hookers come completely welded; from the flange, to o2 bungs, to the collectors.

Is there a way I can post a picture? If you can give me your e-mail I will e-mail it to you. He said they were brand new coated Hooker Super Comps.
Thanks
Matt

JRP you have mail. It was scanned by Norton before leaving so you can rest assured, but feel free to scan it yourself if you want to. Thanks again and let me know what you think.

Thank-you again jrp. I was just looking around on the internet and those ports look like they would line up quite well on an LT1....but not so good on an LS1.
Thanks
Matt

The primary tubes are the same size...both are 1 3/4" to get a larger size you have to go with a Kooks 1 7/8". I Am actualy gonna have kooks make me a set of 1 7/8" LT's with a tri-y collector. They don't make them but the guy there said he can custom make them for me.
