Should I buy a hooker or ....

**johnnybravo** · 05-03-2007, 06:31 PM

Hey guys, I'm having trouble deciding which headers to get. I've narrowed it down to Hooker, Flowtech(made from the same factory as hooker), or pacesetter. I will be putting it with a Y-pipe. I will be getting ones with ceramic coating of course. What works the best and is the easiest to fit?

Hooker and Pacesetter were both great headers for me, I wouldn't recommend the Flowtechs though.

you should never have to pay for a hooker - find a cool girlfriend and she can be your free hooker anyday

hahaha

yeah but sometimes your gf is not as fine as you wish she was; thats when hookers come into play

**Kjz99z28** · 05-03-2007, 07:58 PM

Damnit!! You beat me to it.

**BlackLT1Z28** · 05-03-2007, 08:24 PM

But hookers can give you unexpected 'gifts' that keep on giving...well, I guess a girlfriend can do that too.

Go with Pacesetters.

I curretly have Hooker LTs and have been pretty happy with them. The coating is starting to flake off and allow surface rust down by the collectors tho...

I have flowtech lt headers ceramic coated with a y-pipe and it works great for me. Fits great. Havent had any problems. All i can say is their awesome.

Hows the ground clearance on the flowtech?

**camaro4me** · 05-05-2007, 10:02 AM

i believe that the flowtechs have smaller flanges. get pacesetter, cant go wrong with them

**william SS** · 05-05-2007, 01:57 PM

the ground clearence for flowtech is about 7 inches.

**INMY01TA** · 05-05-2007, 02:18 PM

Hooker or Pacesetter.

that girlfriend will end up costing more than a hooker in the long run.

I have had my Hookers for about 3 1/2 years and they are great
the fit is nice and tight, and boy do they howl when i get on it..........

**408WS6** · 05-07-2007, 09:34 AM

I vote the Hookers just because I like the name

Has anyone ever used the ls1 slp longtube headers? I've heard the horsepower gain is upwards of 41hp. Also I was curious about ground clearance on those too. Thanks everyone...

shitty ground clearance. all i have herd around here is that pacesetters or hookers are money better spent.

**Midnight02** · 05-07-2007, 07:46 PM

I have the Hookers on my car and have been very pleased thus far. Of course, the previous owner bought the non-coated ones and they are slowly starting to rust. When I replace them, I will probably go with the coated version of the exact same header.

They just have longer primarys, 41hp is BS try 15-20rwhp
