Hooker semi fenderwell header install on early a's

[DJVCuda]

]












The template they give you shows DOUBLE the size that was cut - since the motor was out it didnt need it - the hole is mainly for installation purposes

]












The tire clearence is pretty good, ALOT better then full fenderwells, the coardboard is for new sheetmetal template, to cover  the holes from the template that hooker sends you ( keep in mind that the holes are 1/2 the size they recommend cutting!!?!??!)

the #2 tube will have to be unbolted, pulled out of the slip connector and laid down on the frame to be able to remove the oil filter.

the collectors are 2 1/2 " and the passengers side drops lower to accept the lopsided crossmember.

they gotta flo better then my splitfies, BUT they are a lot more work.

damn car isn't fast enough to need better brakes...  the guy built up the 273.. i think he overcammed it..

I think that car ran in the HIGH 16's at the track this summer - it was a customers car at my buddys shop... single master cylinder and all...  <):

Lot of work.

I'd go to a remote oil filter. It will get really old , really fast, having to undo the headers to change the filter.

Do your ports line up with the head? I had a set of those on my '65 A/340 combo and the ports we almost 1/4 inch off. They drilled the flange too low and all the exhaust footprints on the gasket were almost touching the bottom. Course, didnt find out until I took em off one day to replace the gasket. Sent the gasket to Hooker header group of Mr Gasket and they said it was a manufacturing error, "do you have your receipt?" I said "No, they are 3 years old..what does it matter, its not a wearing part, it was how it as made" no dice....

I had these custom made for my 66 Dart.motor is a 360, and headers go under chassis.
