Hooker was making headers back when TurboFire didn't refer to a smoking compressor. Back when Polyglas was considered good rubber and a V-6 wasn't an option in a Malibu.
Hooker has probably forgotten more about headers than Ed Hamburger or Vic Edelbrock will ever know.

I have Hooker headers and consider them to be the best 1 5/8" headers for the money. I had them coated by JetHot to keep them from rusting and keep the heat inside the tubes. The primary tubes still look like brand new after 2 years of driving through every kind of weather.
The Super Comp model 2055 shorty headers are made for '86-92 F-bodies with a single cat, and they have 1 5/8" primary tubes, 2 1/2" downpipes, a 3" exit out of the Y-pipe, air tubes, and the O2 sensor bung. They fit very well, and I didn't even have to jack up the engine, they just slid right in from the top.
