Re: header back exhaust kit

Honestly I didnt really notice any difference one I bolted them up. They sit a tad lower than the frame, like most headers. I can get some pics later if you want, nothing with the bed off but I can get a few low angle shots.

Re: header back exhaust kit

Here's what I got. You can see the extention pieces the muffler shop had to make behind the mufflers. It looks like both headers angle down about the same. Dont judge them by my suspension, the PO decided to lower the truck by torching the springs so the suspension is uneven.

Re: header back exhaust kit

Years ago I used the Hooker system you're looking at on my old 79 3/4 ton, mainly because I had Hooker headers . I believe they were 1 1/2 tubes with 2 1/2 collectors. The Hooker kit bolted up nice to those Hooker headers but they did not angle to the ground like the Summit headers. I know because I have summit headers on my truck now and i still have the old beast sitting out in the field! So my answer is yes the Hooker system will work great if you have the Hooker headers or maybe other headers that don't angle down like the Summit ones. Hope this helps!
