NOTE: Due to the extreme variation in available component combinations for this swap application, custom fabricated mounts are required to provide best-fit installation of these headers.
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.
