Summit Racing.com for Hooker headers.

They produce more low end torque and better mileage over the shorty Clifford headers.

What body style? If it's an early A body Clifford is your only choice, Hookers will not fit. :shock:

I guess if I'd have looked at your screen name I would have known. :lol:

Cliffords are your only option for a bolt-in header. :?

You buy them directly from Dutra ("Doc" or "Doctor Dodge" on here), after learning about them by clicking the link he posted to them just now here in this thread.
