Hooker Super Competition Headers – Big Tubes and Power Spear CollectorTM. These Headers are for high output, supercharged or big inch versions of the Gen III (LS–6/LS–7) engine. The big 1–7/8” tubes combined with Hooker's unique Power Spear™ create the ideal header for competition use. Hooker's Power Spear allows exhaust gases to maintain high velocity as they enter the collector. They also divert along a straighter path in the collector, directing them to merge without excessive back pressure–causing turbulence. These features help extend and broaden the engines' torque curve. The thick 3/8” flanges will seal perfectly and indefinitely. They are designed for a precise, noninterfering fit and good ground clearance. Gaskets and hardware kit are included.
These high performance Headers are intended for the street enthusiast who wants the best performing header out there. These Headers maintain the high value standards Competition Headers are known for with sturdy 16 gauge construction and our new 3/8” head flange for superior sealing. These Headers are easy to install, offer good ground clearance and come complete with gaskets and hardware kit.

Full Length Tube Size 1.875", Collector Size 3", Port Shape: Same as Port, Ceramic Coated

Installation Notes

Breaking in an engine with ceramic coated Headers WILL result in damage to the coating and will VOID all warranties. Ceramic coated Headers require several heat cycles to fully cure before they will withstand extreme heat. Hooker recommends using cast iron exhaust Manifolds or old Headers to break in new engines to avoid coating damage. Please call Hooker tech service at 270–781–9741 for additional information regarding ceramic coated exhaust products. The use of header wraps can cause the header tubes to crack or rust due to excessive heat and moisture build–up. Hooker does not recommend the use of header wraps as this will void the warranty.
