I have Stainless Hookers with a Borgeson box and there was no clearance problem, Just took a picture sorry if it is not clear.

I agree Jon, my Dougs inserts look like the same part as the high flow hookers. They taper nicely to a 2.5" perf core and mine fit very tight into the tubes.

With the tapered inlet and 2.5 inch ID they have to flow plenty for most street motors.

I paid I think $174.00 for the set through Summit with free ship, and its hard to beat that.

For the plugs that I can't get a ratchet and extension on, I use a spark plug socket with a six point end on it so I can turn it with a wrench.

Yep same here Mike, the photo of the box looked like it may block them a bit more, but you know how photos can be
