This is not a tech forum. You'll get more help in Windsor Power


Go with Hooker long tubes. Stay away from BBK, they suck.

I beg to differ. Care to back that up with an experience?
I love my BBK's - perfect fit, nice look, and performance to go with it.

Yes I would. See my sig, I've got a set of BBK long-tubes

One tube touches my starter and on the other side one tube rubs my steering shaft, and I had to shim my motor mounts to keep my rag-joint from hitting the headers.

I'll buy Hooker or MAC next time.

On my '00 my BBK longtubes hit the frame on the passenger side and hit the steering shaft on the driver's side. They also didn't line up with the BBK H-pipe. You might get lucky and get some parts from them that fit by chance, but in my experience BBK is *****.
