The more I look at them, the more I think they are the same header just in a stainless steel finish. I could be wrong, but both headers (drivers and pax) look nearly identical to each brand.

Here is a blend of the Dyantech and Texas-Speed, the TS header is over tsnow678 picture. They are exactly the same, the only difference I can see is the collector.



Pictures belong to Texas-Speed.com and to tsnow678

That's funny, I was going to do a similar photoshop earlier today. They have to be the same design.

I was going to say the same thing. Looks like the same design.

I'm a little confused. Didn't the 48 Hour Camaro use this engine swap system? If so it should fit the Ridetech True Turn system as that is what they used?

Also, the clearances look great but how did the transmission fit? Any mods required on the transmission tunnel for my 69 Camaro with your system and a 4L60E?

No, the 48 Hour Camaro was built before the new Hooker/Holley 1st-gen parts were even on the drawing board. The assembly of that car used the existing Hooker swap plates and 2288HKR headers that have been on the market for about 5 years now. The Crusher Camaro that was swapped by the Roadkill crew at the PRI Show in Dec. however did use the new Hooker/Holley parts...there's a big difference in the approach to how these components work. The 4L60 fits like butter with the new mounts and crossmember.
