1964-74 Chevrolet A/B/F/X-Body Small-Block "Competition" 1-5/8" Headers by Hooker Headers®

Long-transition collectors and machined flanges suit stock or mildly modified small-blocks.

Designed for stock or mildly modified Chevrolet small-block engines, Hooker Headers® "Competition" headers use 16-gauge, mandrel-bent 1-5/8-inch primary tubes and 3-inch collectors with long transitions. Available versions are black-painted steel, silver ceramic-coated steel, black ceramic-coated steel and natural 304 stainless steel. Applications with 283-400-cu.-in. Chevrolet small-block engines include 1964-74 Chevelle (including Malibu) & El Camino, 1967-74 Camaro, 1968-74 Nova and 1970-74 Monte Carlo. Full-size applications cover 1965-74 Chevrolet passenger cars, including Bel Air and Impala, plus 1966-74 Caprice. Use factory-style motor mounts and factory-type cylinder heads. Angle-plug heads, close-ratio steering boxes and rack-and-pinion conversions are not compatible. Raised-port heads, D-port heads and relocated spark plugs can cause sealing or clearance problems. The two collectors exit at different heights, and lowered vehicles may lack adequate ground clearance. Manual-transmission clutch linkage requires the illustrated modification. A left-mounted generator or alternator needs a separate mounting bracket, and early engines may require conversion to a spin-on oil filter. Some applications require removal of the floor-mounted heat shield for header clearance. Sold as a pair with gaskets and mounting hardware; collector reducers are sold separately. Protect ceramic finishes by using other manifolds or headers for initial engine break-in.

Features • 1-5/8-inch mandrel-bent primaries with 3-inch collectors • Long-transition collectors for stock or mildly modified engines • Black paint, silver ceramic, black ceramic or 304 stainless versions • Factory-style mounts required; angle-plug heads excluded • Pair includes gaskets and mounting hardware; reducers separate
