The Hooker 2055's use a ball and flange setup. The two flat plates that you screw the bolts into are meerly there to apply pressure and keep the ball and flange sealed.

Its a machined surface fit, and no gaskets are neccesary.

Re: Those with Hooker 2055's, come on in!

The two center exhaust outlets on SBC heads used to be siamezed.

So you have two bolts on #1, 2 bolts for ports 3 and 5, and then 2 bolts for #7. Totalling 6 exhaust bolts per side.

The 12 pack is enough.
