LOL, you are my hero, nothing sexier than a 2nd Gen Camaro with a set of Cragars and showtubes. Best of luck finding a set. Have you checked Ebay?

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

yeah ive been on ebay looking for a while. my camaro has the cragar s/s 15x10 and 15x7 with mickey thompson L60 indy profile s/s and hooker universal show tubes which are hooked in to my headers. each tube is functional no dummy tubes. I have an original mas fiberglass MOTION L88 hood that came off of a real 71 MOTION PHASE III 454 Camaro. i have a 406 around 450hp backed by a muncie rock crusher with 4.56 gears in the rear. its red with white MOTION stripes. the pipes i got work i would just like to have some originals

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes

Man, I just threw away a set of Hooker Headers with sidepipes off my 74 z/28. There were some rust holes in the side pipes at the mounts, but I am sure they could have been easily fixed. The headers were chrome along with the side pipes. I was going to give them to Darren as a joke.

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes

I was waiting for you to post. You are so cruel. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

yeah i saw the post on nasty z28. sean pm'd me and wants to make me a deal for my 70 camaro big block side pipes when he gets production rolling https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

Car Guy Rule #1 - Never throw anything away, there is always someone who will buy it...especially if it is no longer produced or vintage!

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

that is sooooooo true. but the guy that wants to reproduce these pipes over at nastyz28 says he got them from a guy with a 74z that he recently acquired. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif seems i saw pics of a 74z in this thread https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

I would have never thought in a Million years that anyone would want them. I guess I thought the same about my orig XT wheels that I tossed back in 1982. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

i know what you mean jonesy. i had a pair of old aluminum valve covers that said pro stock in the center and a pair of appliance and fenton super shark wheels.i put them out for spring clean up 3 yrs ago and watched two guys fist fight for them. i never would have thought anyone would want them as they were all pitted. but the guy that ended up with them had the wheels rechromed and cleaned up the valve covers. good for him https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

I can't remember, did I ask about them when you got the car. I thought I did.. No biggie, just wondering.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif I might not have cause my memory is shot. Like this morning, I thought it was spring until I looked out the window. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

its spring here

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

Thought Id take a pic and post....These have been on the car for many years...I'm not sure what brand they ever were....I always thought these were fabricated...I had them repaired and re-jet coated to try and save them a number of years ago and I have not barely driven the car since....

They really look and sound cool, but before you install them though, do realize they really do not like speed bumps...

And most important of all!!!...tell your wife/girlfriend to ALWAYS wear long pants when going cruising with you....!!!

Take that from experience!!

But don't get me wrong....they are sooo worth it!!!

Darren

I really thought you were joking about the side pipes and giving me grief. I feel bad about it now.

It must be another 74 z becuase these went to the scrap yard with a bunch of other steel. There is no way those are the ones I had.

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

As neat as they look, I agree since I have a set on my '69, but I had heard they kill horsepower...anyone have any details or experience on that?

Not to hijack but...what happened to the original wheels with the 3 Firestones on that 74.

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

I have all 4 original wheels and 4 Firestone Wide Ovals. The tires were taken off and replaced with new Firestone WO repops and mounted back on the wheels. They are staying with the car. The orig Firestones are in storage.

Re: 70-81 Camaro Hooker Side Pipes
 

good to see you here too john

Hooker side pipes part number,
I can not find these 2 part numbers in my Hooker catalog 2251 and 2261, these are suppose to be second gen camaro.

Any help?

thanks

The BB have not been made in years. The SB ones you can still buy through Summit or Jegs.

Hooker only make them for Corvette

Finally scored a set of Hooker header side pipes part#2232 for a 2nd gen Camaro, wish they where chrome but they are NOS just stored poorly. Off to the powder coater next week.

Thanks for the tip Lee!
