I HAD A PAIR OF HOOKER AIRO CHAMBER MUFFLERS ON A BIG BLOCK IN A 71 SHORT FLEET, & WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THEM. THEY SOUNDED GREAT & SEEMED TO BE REALLY WELL MADE. JOHN

I have hooker aero chambers on my 68 with 350 SB, they sound great, and don't reverberate in the cab. You won't be disapointed with them.

Hooker Super Comps are headers, not mufflers. Is he selling headers OR mufflers?

I'll keep these in mind when I get my exhaust redone... I'm going to go with some shorty headers and 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 pipe. Does anyone have a sound clip of these mufflers?

How do they sound compared to the flows? I've been wanting to ditch my 40's for somthing else but I haven't heard anything that I really like yet. Everything sounds too muffled, you know like when guys with brand new trucks put a single 3 inch pipe?
I'm thinking about going with the flow delta 50's. I found a web site that has sound clips of different engines with different mufflers, none of them really sounded that great to me but what can you expect from a sound clip, the Hooker's weren't on there. |
