I am looking at a used set of headers. Hooker 2055
They are old and rusty but I want to make sure they will bolt in just like the factory manifolds. It looks like they have the stock style ball and socket connector.
I had a set of cheap headers on my last camaro with 3 bolt flange and gaskets and they sucked.
They should fit like the originals but you may need the y pipe for the headers as well, unless the the stock pipe fits idk. I’m assuming it does not. And looking at the condition and again assuming no holes or damage I’d pay $50 tops

Right now I have stock cast manifolds, but a really nice mandrel bent y-pipe with magnaflow cat back. I am hoping these will bolt to my y-pipe.
I would NOT assume these will fit a stock y-pipe. If you can get the matching y-pipe with them I would say $100 at most. If not...... maybe $50.

I wonder if holley would be able to tell if these would bolt to stock location y-pipe. The seller does have a y-pipe but wants $100 for the headers or $175 for both. My y-pipe looks better than his, that's why I wanted to keep it and just get headers.
New from summit the package sells for $600. That's why I was thinking his price wasn't outrageous, but it's still not great for a well used item.
I don’t know that it’s the y pipe so much as the flange size is different. I would bet the Hooker collector flange is 2.5” vs your manifolds which would be 2.25” at best, or possibly 2.00” depending on what they came off of. Best case scenario you can get them on the cheap and have an exhaust shop arrange your existing y pipe to fit them. Shouldn’t cost much. I would try to score y pipe flange as well just in case and clean them all up well.
