HEADERS/ EXHAUST SIZE AND REDUCERS
« on: November 04, 2006, 04:19:00 PM »
I am looking at some nice long tube ceramic coated headers on Ebay for a 76 C10 with a 350. My question is this. I already have 2 and 1/2" stainless exhaust and alot of the headers have 3" collectors. Are they made to connect to 3" only or can a reducer to the 2 and 1/2" pipe is Ok and not present any restriction problems. Thanks

The make the reducers that make it go from 3" to 2.5". I ran the hooker headers on my 77 chevy. They have a 3" collector and i used a r educer to run it to 2.5" piping and i never had any problems with it.

how was the fit in your Hooker's and what is the height of your truck, any lowering/drop?
