Description
1968-1972 GM A-Body 3 inch Exhaust System for Wagon/El Camino/4-Door
At the heart of any performance vehicle is the exhaust system. Hooker with its classic heart logo has been at the core of the exhaust industry for decades. Many of the most powerful vehicles on the planet have used Hooker Headers. Hooker continues to push the boundaries of performance with the new Blackheart line of LS swap system components for popular muscle car and classic truck applications.
