Header advice

i bought some expensive hooker super comp ceramic coated for my 71 dodge demon and they had major clearence issues so i went back to stock

Tell me about it , have the SS hookers and they hit everything , only time hookers were good was on my 4x4 440 ramcharger , no cearance fit issues there .
Save the money for some good headers , the leaks and hits are NOT worth it . Use manifolds , these guys know what they are talking about . Unless your streets are super smooth with no speed bumps , or it only gets run on the 1/4 mile strip
