Default Big block Chevy Header I.D.
Bought these several years ago from a guy who thought they were for 67 Chevelle. Tried them on the Chevelle over the weekend and no go. I cannot find any numbers any where on them. Does anyone have any ideas what they might fit??

Disregard. Upon further review it's not what I thought.

What size primary tube and collector?

Are they Hookers?

3 1/2 collector. I will have to measure primaries tonight. All the newer hookers I have are marked with numbers or the Heart symbol. I do think these are really old though.

Don't know, but I've never seen the hooker medallion on the #8 pipe.

Default Hooker Super Competition
These are identical to a Facebook Marketplace add that I recently saw. HOOKER Super Competition #2111 headers that fit 1967-69 CAMARO and 68-74 NOVA applications with a BBC 396-454. I will try and send you the link so you can compare as well.

Cheers,
Marty

Pretty certain those are knockoffs of the 67-69 Camaro Hooker headers. I have the exact set that I use on my engine test stand.

In my, limited, experience with Hookers, the collector flange has been welded, not loose. And every, Chevelle, set I had, the right side hung lower. These seem to sit quite level. No experience with BB Camaro.
Being white, could they be an early transition of Appliance into Thorley ??

I can't figure out how to include a pic, but they have the collectors welded...
