Well I ran super comps for years poor fit and quality but made good power! 3 sets from 86 to 2006 But Now I have TTI and would not put hookers on again If I was paid too.
Great fit and excelant power has hooker and their Mexican super comps ever missed the boat

Mexican super comps...Good one. I agree TTI's are nice but I sure don't have that kinda $. I have to rely on swap meet junk for the most part. Nothing better than good ol' fashioned bacyard engineering.

Hooker Comps are 1 7/8" and are under $220. Hooker Super Comps have 2" primaies and are like over $500 now. There are many under $150 headers out there- Walker, Blackjack, Hedman, Flowtech and Summit. Dont expect any of the headers I mentioned to be made of quality thick steel. Even the Hooker Super Comps are made of thin rust quickly steel. Hedman makes a 1 3/4" primary header- the Elite series that is suppose to be made from thicker more durable metal. Those are priced under $250 I think. The best headers will be TTIs, Dougs, Thorley and all of them are above $700.
