Exhaust choices
 
I’m looking at a couple of choices for exhaust.
1. Heartthrob has a kit
2. Hooker 16527HKR
The hooker kit looks to be discontinued but can be found here and there. The heartthrob kit looks like a viable option but I am unsure if it is alumanized for rust. I don’t think the hooker is either. What are people’s experience? I have an LS swap so I’m thinking I’ll have to do a little cutting but not a big deal. I’m thinking 2.25 should work fine. That’s the size of the manifolds anyway.

I'm running the Heartthrob kit , I was pleased with the install. I did it in my drive way in a couple hours. The right side tucks higher than the left but the tailpipes come out just right.

Thanks for the pictures. Are the pipes straight that pass the transfer case on both sides?

Yes they are. Glad I could help.

I think the pipes on the hooker kit are curved on the passenger side. The old pipes I pulled off were. I think I might need a curve due to the pipes off my manifolds dropping lower.

These tuck pretty tight.

Definitely looks good. I’ll look into it more. Thanks for the info.

I've used the Heartthrob exhaust at least 3 times over the years and would use it again.
