Hooker Side mount headers...Who's had the best price?
I'm looking to buy a set of these from the States and for obvious reasons I'd like to get the best price I can.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Brutus, I e-mailed Jet-Hot coating a while back and here's a copy of the reply. At this price I think it might be cheaper getting the side mounts directly from them. IMHO
Len,
Yes, we do have Pre-coated sidepipe systems for Corvettes. As you would expect they are coated inside & out with our Sterling finish, and carry a lifetime warranty. This set comes with headers, sidetubes & mufflers - your choice of reverse flow or glasspack style.
Price is $1175 for a small block set(big block $1225), and that includes bolts, gaskets and shipping within the 48 states via FedEx ground.
This is NOT what you would buy from Summit, Jegs, etc. Hedman & Flowtech don’t coat the insides of the pipes. Hooker’s internal coating is merely a line of sight spray down the first few inches of the primary tubes. Which is why their warranty is only a year.
Our coating is expected to lower under-hood temperatures by 40 degrees, keeps the pipes 25% cooler and get you 1-3% extra horsepower. Of course, it's highly rust resistant as well - 140x better than paint. Because of that we expect it to increase part life be 10x or more.
If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me line.
Thanks

Re: Hooker Side mount headers...Who's had the best price? (1970 Stingray)
Len...Thanks for taking the time to help me out, but there's one small problem with my buying them pre-coated tho. I have to have the RH side bank of pipes altered to suit the RHD steering on my car. Unfortuantely it's not as easy for us over here to fit anything like this by purchasing it "over the counter".
Summit has the pipes in 'black' which suits my purpose for around $379.00. Double that and add shipping and you'll see why I'm searching for the best price possible.
