You can't.

If you want long tubes with A.I.R. fittings, give Hooker or Hedman a call. They will probably set them up for you on a special order basis. You need the O2 fitting, too.

They will not have the CARB EO badge on them, though. The company won't stand behind them, and whether the inspector gives them a pass is up to the inspector.

Hooker 2055's would not be a problem. Why do you think you need LTs?

In California I had to go to a "Test Only" station for my 1989 Trans Am. It is the 1 5/8" SLP headers. He wanted to know the CARB number for the headers. I failed until I produced the number. Fortunetely I was able to get it an pass. Allen

Not for the typical emissions-legal ride.

Hooker 2055's have the CARB number on a tag welded onto the #1 primary tube.
