makn u shiver,

Here are a couple of pictures from the underside of my car, 1985, with TPIS headers and a Conton road race pan. I have no clearance issues. Not hooker header but maybe this helps.

Don't know about Hookers but my Hedmans fit fine with the Canton pan. I would say that if the Hookers resemble VanSpeed's then you should be fine.

My EM headers fit with no problems as well with the same pan.

I've got plenty of clearance with that pan and my Stainless Works headers too. I think we've covered about everything except the Hookers now! You should have no problems. There's so little room for variance in that area, that all C4 headers are going to be very close in the distance between the collectors.

I put Supercomps on a 86 with a Canton pan. No problems with clearance.

It's a strap/buckle/eyelet from the bellhousing balistic blanket. It is supposed to bolt to something solid, but I was working on it at the time.
