hooker header right?

yeah i plan to build the header around the k setup hoping that it will give more room.

the hooker long tubes fit great. the passenger side just touches at the bottom. i could probably get enough clearance with a grinder. i had edelbrock shorties prior. what a difference, go with long tubes.

i'm just worried about reliability on the street.........nothing more nothing less. i want the extra room for the custom headers.

can anyone tell me why i don't want one? if so, is it a particular brand i should stay away from or all in general?
