hk shooter, what email address did you use for Hooker? I can't find who manufactures these pipes.

I think I used the "other information request" option from the drop down menu. Good Luck,all Iwanted to know was if/when they were going to make the pipes for Dyna's. But, like I said they never answereed me back.

RE: Hooker FourBidden Headers
Thanks! I've got the number for Holley and the guy who's responsible for the engineering.
(270) 782-2900 - Go to the engineering department and ask for Eric Hatcher.
He told me there are plans to make the exhaust for different models, but they have not started. The "sloptail" model will not fit the Dyna.
Holley just need to know there is an interest in this exhaust. They will have to design and test. We just need to keep it up.

It would depend on whether or not your O2 sensors were still intact, but I doubt O2 sensors would fit along those skinny little pipes. If you could fit them or weld them in place, they probably would stand out and not look right. I called the company about 18 months ago wondering if these pipes would ever be made to fit a dyna and the guy pretty much said, "Do Whut?" That was a long time ago and I doubt the braintrust at Holley R&D has got around to designing something for the bastard line of HD.

I think its silly looking why on earth do you need 4 head pipes on a twin? Extra weight extra back pressure,extra complexity.Throw in a couple extra cylinders, maybe but for now I'll pass.
Gigawitz, Would be nice if your buddy tried them on his Dyna. I'm such a cheapskate, I don't want to buy a set and then be stuck. But if I knew they would fit a Dyna, I'd certainly buy a set.
How Hot does your right leg get with all four pipes coming together in one spot right next to your knee area ? Looks like alot of heat coming together in one spot next to the Oil lines

"No heat issues yet, the ceramic coating does make them run cooler, my leg actually runs by that home made heat shield (hard to see in the pic) I did extend my forward controls 2 inches so it might be a problem for riders of certain stature if they were in the stock location. "
