Hooker Comp Headers
By John UK - 07/23/2004 8:04:07 AM; IP 194.60.85.4
I'm one of us that have gone through the bitter and painful experience of putting Hooker comp headers on my 428 in my 68 XR7 GT. I know a few of you have shared this pain with me and boy are they tight fitting! I've got two bolts per port (my original 390GT heads had 4-3-3-4?), I've wrapped them in insullating tape to keep the heat down in the engine bay but they are touchin gthe side of the inner wall of the shock tower.

I've yet to finish the rebuild but my fear is that I start it and the motor works the headers loose on a regular basis! Any help guys - thanks.
