What kind of price should I expect to pay for hooker L/t's and matching o/r X?

from what iv seen bbk gives the most gain in power. they will cost you around $700 if you got longtubes and o/r x, the catted x is a little more.

Here is a TYPICAL MAC LT header thread for those that might care.

I paid $700 for my BBKs and Dr. Gas.

Are either the hooker headers or the BBK's stainless?

The problems were specifically related to MAC L/Ts (surprise) and several 4V engines boroscoped after using the MAC headers showed evidence of weld slag being introduced into the cylinders through the EGR system.

So its not worth goin with the MAC L/T's, they aer considerably cheaper than the BBK... do you think the MAC L/T's and BBK X would match well?

I'm thinking about getting the BBK Lt's. Will the BBK L/T's bolt up to a Bassani X or will I need to change the mid pipe? Also, how difficult is it to do yourself. Can it be done in a garage, do you need special tools?

I use BBK L/T with O/R X-pipe. They sound bad ass! No regrets thus far.
