i am looking to buy headers for my car and i am thinking about buying the edelbrock t.e.s headers. any advice on my purchase wopuld be greatly appreciated

 

Jet-Hot?

 

forgot jethot man

even though hookers are same design, they are diff

 

so the hookers are better?

 

The Jet-Hots are better than the Hookers.

Also, are you asking about power gains or quality of materials, fit and finish, or what?

 

most power, do they leak?

 

As long as you use good gaskets and keep the bolts tight they shouldn't leak.

 

Your poll needs to have TPIS as a option. They're the best headers made IMO.

 

My Jet-Hots are leak free, never had a single problem with them.

 

The search feature is your friend

 

Hooker Longtubes has been the best buy in the LT catagory....

 

I vote Jet Hots, they are a little better than Hookers, as they are a thicker guage. Exact same design otherwise, and they come coated, jet hots that is. A little cheaper too.

 

Your question is kind of confusing...You have listed both Long and short tube Header systems. Jet Hots are like 800. Hookers are like 400-800 with Y pipe...Prety much same consistantcy for any LT system. Edle Brock shorties are best for "TRUE" trouble free install. I"Ve got a set on my car check em out.

first you need to decide whether you want midlength headers or longtube headers. Midlengths are the easiest to install, bolt right in if they have a ypipe included, also have the best ground clearance. Longtubes are overall better headers for any car, except lowered cars (still possible though) they are 1/8" bigger diameter primaries and are "long tubes" to help with exhaust scavenging (long drawn out topic there). Longtubes require purchasing a ypipe either from mufflex, stainless works, or jethot to work with your catback, or you can get one fabricated locally.

In conclusion, longtubes = performance , midlengths = ease of installation/price (still very well performing though)

 

Where did you get $800 for Jet Hots from???!!! I paid $510 shipped! $800 is WAY off.
