What are the headers that everyone are using. I have a set of flowtech and they will not fit without a fair amount of rework.

 

I have hooker 2055. I had to keep emissions legal, they went in fairly easy and fit well as far as plugs and ground clearance go. I would have gone long tube if emissions were not an issue as well as ground clearance since it is lowered. I have installed edlebrocks as well and they seemed a little easier to get in and clear everything nicely also. hope this helps

 

A is always a good thing. The Hooker 2055's are a great choice. Check the following link:

SLP 1 3/4" shortys
Edelbrock TES headers

 

have flowtech headers and they fit fine then i swapped the oil pan to aftermarket one and the y pipe hit the oil pan and had to bend it to fit better

 

I have Edelbrock TES headers, They are pretty nice. Had to stay emissions legal that why I got these as well.

 

This is all in the sticky in the exhaust section... its covered very very well...

 

I have dart 165 heads, and I think that is my problem. It seams to pitch the headers up and out which makes the flang hit the firewall. The number eight plug hits one of the runners. I wanted to buy one last set, maybee ceramic just did not want to end up wrong combo again.

 

Your problem is that you used flow techs... there is a reason those are dirt cheap. Their flanges are machined like aluminum foil. If you get them on and take them off... you might as well toss them because they warp. They are kinda like disposable tupperware.... they can be used for a while, but then eventually you have to throw them away.

Just buy hooker 2055's they have insane quality and a legendary y-pipe.

 

DAMN! i just checked summit for the price on those hooker 2055's, they want around $750 for them!!!

 

Must be the coated version.

I got a set for $370 shipped from summit, worth every last cent.

 

they are 389.95 plus a 9.95 handling charge.

 

not when i bought them.. they were on sale
$400 is worth those headers...

 

with the y-pipe? good deal.
i didnt see them without the coating on summit

 

hkr-2055 is the part number and yes it comes will y-pipe, hardware, and gaskets

 

with y pipe $400 is not that bad.

 

I have Edelbrock TES headers with Ti-tech ceramic coating.
I'd recommend copper gaskets and split-lock header bolts on any kind of header. Have them on mine and haven't had a leak since putting them on. A company called Breslin makes the split-lock bolts if anyone wanted to know.

 

i have a set of SLP 1 3/4 shorties and matching y pipe ceramic coated and i love them, they work well, fit well, and look great, and i believe they are stainless steel?

 

Anyone have the hooker 2210's they are a bit cheaper than the 2055's and are full length. Is that better or worse on a third gen?

 

also look in the exhaust board it's all covered in there.Also may want to try a
