Hooker install IS FINISHED!

I started to install my Hooker cat-back today. I though I was going to have to make a hanger for the pasenger side, but they must have fixed the problem becuase the hanger from Hooker was in the right place. All I have to do tomorrow is take the INT pipe to the Exhuast shop and have them flare it so it will slip on to my 3" off-road pipe. The system looks very nice with the black muffler and Chrome dual-dual tips sticking out the back. After I get the INT pipe on, back to the exhuast shop to have it all welded together. :rockon:

I will be running edelbrock headers with a hooker catback soon.
Did all the pipe fit nicely? Id like to be able to get it in myself and just pay for welds instead of install.

I was able to to do it myself. Very easy to do when the INT pipe comes in two pieces.

No, the Y-pipe I have is the one that came with my TES headers. The Hooker Intermediate pipe came in 2 piece. It split right at the axel. Very easy to install.

You have the TES headers with the 3'' y pipe? how does it sound with the 305?? just wondering how it sounds because that will be my exact setup here in a couple weeks cept im running a 350 so it will sound a tad different...i have more compression to.

I know marks sounds real good even with a cat and a set of TES headers that have the 2.5'' y pipe. also had low compression. I hope it sounds good. Im going from duals back to this so I might be dissapointed
