Bb Camaro/Chevelle Heade

The Hooker BB Camaro/Chevelle Headers are purpose-built competition exhaust manifolds engineered for big-block Chevrolet engine swaps in second-generation Camaro, Chevelle, and F-body platforms from 1964–1974. Designed by a manufacturer with decades of high-performance automotive expertise, these headers deliver measurable gains in scavenging efficiency and horsepower by optimizing exhaust gas flow away from the combustion chamber. Competition-grade headers are essential for builders seeking maximum performance from big-block mills in vintage muscle car platforms.

These headers feature a primary tube diameter of 2 inches that expands into a 3.5-inch collector, a tuned geometry that minimizes back-pressure while maintaining scavenging velocity across the RPM band. Constructed from mandrel-bent steel with a durable black paint finish, the assembly resists thermal stress and corrosion common in high-heat exhaust environments. The package includes all gaskets and hardware necessary for installation, eliminating sourcing delays and ensuring proper sealing at the cylinder head flange.

Builders restoring or upgrading 1964–1974 Chevrolet A-body, B-body, and F-body vehicles benefit most from this matched pair of headers when combining engine displacement increases or targeting dyno gains in competition settings. Installation requires removal of the factory cast-iron manifolds and minor exhaust system modifications depending on the specific platform and collector routing. Verify fitment with your vehicle's specific year and body style before ordering, as header clearance varies with engine bay geometry and ancillary components.
