  • What is this guy talking about? Hooker LT's for a 3.8?

    Does Hooker make headers for the 3.8. I thought it was just CIA, RK, and PS. He seems to be sure that they do. Im thinking he's probably just full of it, buy maybe I'm missing something. [img]smile.gif[/img]

    From these pics you can see stock manifolds on the engine..

    I dont know if those were taken before he put them on though, but I have never heard of any hooker headers for our 3.8's, especially not longtubes. All I know is someone on this board did take the pacesetters and modified them to make them longtubes.

          He also calims that he has "forged uppers and lowers" which is new to me...I don't think this guy is legit.

          If you look at the brake rotor pic on the last page, you can see that the color of the car that those are on is blue and he has a red car. Odd.

            guy is far from legit... claims to have dynoed 386 on a 100 shot.

            he ALSO claims to have broken a B&M shifter. since i own one for real, all i can say is: highly unlikely.

            why do people always have to make up cars?

              I just called Hooker myself. They DO NOT make any headers for our cars. That guy is [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]

                    Ok, I'm raising the [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img] flag for these reasons:

                    1. Hooker doesnt make headers for our engines.

                    2. The pics show stock manifolds.

                    3. 100 shot with no heads/cam or blower/turbo wont make 386 to the wheels.

                    4. He doesnt have a cold air intake, just a chopped air box, but still makes 386 to the wheels with a 100 shot.................

                    Only thing I can back him up on is that he said he broke the STOCK shifter and thats why he bought the B&M shifter, not that he broke the B&M shifter, but we dont even know if he could break the stocker. Who knows but I say [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]

                        You sure?
                        Looks like 93-96 to me. Right at the top of the pic, you can see the shift layout label sticker thingy that is mounted just behind the shifter.

                              Complete idiot...that is about 450 flywheel and it looks like he claimed to have over 400 rwhp before, someone mentioned it in his guestbook. Looks like you can only have Eibach springs if you have T-tops as well. How exactly do you break the shifter, it must take a few hundred pounds to bend it let alone break it. Oh...and he created the page in May 2004 and the dyno is from 2002 but he hasn't updated the page to reflect his outragous dyno?

                              PROOF OF FAKE DYNO: http://home.comcast.net/~bartalane/ he just edited his baseline with a change of the 286.6 to 386.6 and the another change for the torque. The guys name bart lane and basse3 is even spelled the same wrong way. What a douche.
