Technical Need help with hookers

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by racer-x, Aug 29, 2021.

  1. I have what i believe are some old hooker super comp bbc headers. There is a number stamped on each flange. It doesnt match their current numbers. If anyone has a old catalog that can check this number i would appreciate it. Thanks
    Numbers are
    Right 1227 or 4
    Left 1224

  6. Squirrel do these numbers show up in your catalog for anything. They look like they have a chevy flange. The spacing is equal. The collectors had the adjustable primaries until someone welded them. Thats a hooker thing. They might be older from the 70s.

    Didn’t @bchctybob work for Hooker? Or maybe it was Headman.

    They don't really look to me like Hookers.

  13. I’m with Jim,,,,are you certain they are Hooker ?
    All the old ones I ever saw had a Hooker medallion welded on the primary tube .
    Hedman had a lot of headers with bolt on collectors .

    And I believe you are correct,,,,that flange was mis stamped.
    It should be the same number flange on either side .

    Story of my life.
    I wonder or suspect @squirrel is correct having vast knowledge of Hookers ... Maybe @racer-x needs a new order catalog?

  16. They might not be hookers. Not all hookers came with the tag welded on. I have a set of tags. Not too many companies made the large tubes. I figured i would start there. If anyone has old header catalogs can you look up this number? Google searches are not working out.
