I’m looking through the Holley website on all their Gen3 hemi swap parts. I am seeing a lot of stuff being discontinued. What’s the story here? Long tube headers are gone. Only log type available. Various mount brackets gone. They were becoming a decent source for the swap, now the support doesn’t seem to be there.

Same ol same ol mopar overpriced stuff. They make cool stuff but they overprice it so that it never sells then they discontinue it because "there is no market for mopar stuff" and go back to selling chevy stuff for half the price.

Might have to do with the latest EPA strong arming, banning the sale of parts that effect the EPA stds. for emissions? There's been quite a bit of conversation about this on the interwebs.

I don't really understand that part. Putting a late model 5.7 or 6.4 Hemi into an older 60's/70's muscle car improves the emissions of those cars. Can't see that as a negative. But then common sense is something lacking in government agencies.

Some of these parts may have had applications removed because of EPA regulations, but still listed for earlier applications.
