Re: Rusting probs with Hooker LTs? No rusting from mine other than where I scraped coating off on the underside, but I don't drive it daily and don't hardly ever drive it in wet weather, so I'm probably not a good data point for you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Rusting probs with Hooker LTs? Get SLP or QTEC SS headers. The downside to the QTEC is they do not come coated. Steel is going to rust, coated or not.
SS has a lower thermal conductivity than steel and mild steel. Point is the thermal coating is overkill, but it looks nice.
