Hooker Header Fitment on 66 GP


Hi guys, my local parts shop can get Hooker Headers Part #2457HKR. He says they fit a 66 Chev Impala and has asked me to find out if they will fit into my 66 Grande Parisienne with the 454 BBC.

Can anyone vouch for this? Thanks.

Like someone commented in an earlier post, the drivetrain and frame on Canadian Pontiacs and Beaumonts are Chevy, and according to the Summit site those headers will fit almost everything Chevy.
Unless someone else chimes in with firsthand experience to the contrary, I would say they will fit. That being said there is often the need for a little custom denting in some situations with these universal fit units, be it Chevy or Pontiac.

Hookers are a little overkill for a 4200 lb Pontiac    but they it sounds nice when you say its got Hookers     Hedman or any generic header would be a better deal $$$$$

One thing I would suggest is looking at other makes of header that offer a smaller tube size. The Hookers are a 2" tube. You don't lose much going with a 1 5/8 or 1 3/4 inch tube and they take up significantly less space.
The reason I mention this is from what I've read in reviews of the Hookers on Summit and Jegs. Almost all relay issues with fit.
