Question Hooker Headers

Anyone know of any install guides for Hooker Headers in a LS1 F-Body. I did a search but came up short. Also, Has anyone noticed a difference in performance or sound. I'm just wondering being I have SLP Loudmouth. I was just wondering if it makes it any louder. I will be also using Hookers cat eliminated Y-pipe as well.
Thanks in advance guys.

Performance will increase, vibration will increase, and sound will most definetly increase. Especially if your running through a LoudMouth.

The Hookers definitley smoothed out acceleration and idle, but running it through a LM is going to be deafining! Especially with no cats.

They are easy to install. I did mine on jackstands in a couple hours.

Joe,

Did you have to disconnect the steering? What type of gaskets did you use?

Thanks for the help

No, didn't have to disconnect the steering. The drivers side was a pain, but we just hammered it in with a mallet and a BIG prybar. Some scratches but no holes or dents. As far as the gaskets, I think they we just bought brand new GM gaskets.
