Does anyone have the number where you can order headers direct from Hooker?

Im with Al on this one Sixties. Most everything from the manufacter's are always a bit more expensive. Try Summitt Racing. They have always been one the cheapest IMO.

Can I have opinions on what header options I have to use on my 69 Camaro Big Block..I want the Ceramic coating and will have them hooked up to Chambered exhaust....Want them to be good fit without using "hammer".....Thanks, Chuck S/Seattle

I havent used headers on a bigblock in a 69 Camaro, but i just recently installed Hooker Super Comp headers on a 69 Z, they fit very well, and if you go for Hooker iŪve heard that they will very well for the Big BlockŪs also.

I bought a set of Doug's for my COPO Doug's Headers for GM . You should also check Thorley as well Thorley Headers for GM. Both have been in the business since the 60s. Thorley is the original Yenko supplier, but I had better customer service from Doug's. Both offer ceramic.

At Rob Clary's suggestion, I had them Jet Hot coated instead of ceramic. The sterling finish is pretty to look at (kind of like a bright pewter) and apparently is more durable and has better conductivity than ceramic. They also sell headers (Headman or Hooker, I think). Jet-Hot Coatings

I called Jet Hot and spoke with Todd....They have in stock the Hooker Competetion Header (not the Super Comp) with a 2" primary and 3 1/2" collector. With oval port heads on a 427 engine I was thinking 1 3/4 primarys with 3" collectors would be enough.....Jet Hot wants $467.00 delivered which was more than I anticipated spending....But it seems that the other misc companies add on at least $180.00 for the ceramic coating to their price.......thanks for your additional comments.....Chuck S

You won't regret the Jet coating. We've had the ceramic, but the Jet stuff beats it in looks and durability HANDS DOWN. Yeah, they're pricy, but they'll outlast the car.
