Yes, all the required hangers are included in the kit. If they are not in your kit, you'll need to place a call to Holley Customer Service to get it remedied.

Looks very nice. I would move the right hand exhaust pipe to the right a bit from the trailing arm opening just a bit more.
Again looks very cool. |

Re: Hooker Blackheart 1967-72 C10 Truck LS/LT Swap System Info Thread
Seeing we can not purchase these can you tell us what mandrel bends for the over axle tail pipes we need to buy so we can make our own ?
I have been on the waiting list with Holley for 2 estimated shipping dates now and they never ship and I have waited months now for one and the next round is almost 5 months out, they told me before that 5 were in the works and I was # 3 on the list but they never get shipped and this is the last piece of my build that I needed to buy. |

Re: Hooker Blackheart 1967-72 C10 Truck LS/LT Swap System Info Thread
When I did my C10 I used mandrel bends from Summit. I try guesstimate the number needed but here in MN they have mandrel bends at the local Fleet Farm store. NAPA has them also. Dyno Max turbo mufflers. 3" at the header collector reduced to 2.5". I use band clamps not the typical muffler clamps. I typically start at the header and work my way to the end of the vehicle.

I have exhaust from the headers to the axle that are good and stainless, I just do not have the over axle tail pipes because I did not know what bends I would need.

I would not wait the 2 weeks, I still have not received mine.
Something else is going on I can not see blaming it on covid. |

Re: Hooker Blackheart 1967-72 C10 Truck LS/LT Swap System Info Thread
I would agree that your best course of action would be to go with an alternative source for your exhaust system if you are trying to be at a show with your truck on a specific date next month. I might make the same choice myself if I were in your shoes.

Re: Hooker Blackheart 1967-72 C10 Truck LS/LT Swap System Info Thread
toddoky. I went with the Blackheart setup straight out the back and I am now wondering what I could do to tuck the end pieces up in the rear step fenders some more so they can't be seen. When you stand at the side of the truck you can see the tailpipe too much between the rear of the step fender and the bumper. Can I get the end pieces only to have a local shop bend them (without a hanger)? Maybe I should have just ordered the ones that go out the side and modified them. Thanks for any help

Re: Hooker Blackheart 1967-72 C10 Truck LS/LT Swap System Info Thread
The components are all run to build complete systems, so there is nothing left over to offer as individual parts once the production run gets boxed up and placed on the shelf.
I'm not aware of any aftermarket exhaust manufacturer that offers individual system parts for sale, but I can see where that would sometimes be of benefit to an end user such as yourself. A competent fabricator can build you any sort of tips you want from U-bends; complete custom exhaust systems are fabricated that way in great numbers. |

Edit....found them |
