1964-1967 A-Body LS 1-7/8 Ceramic Coated Mid-Length Headers
For builders seeking precise LS engine integration, the 1964 to 1967 A-Body LS 1 7/8 Ceramic Coated Mid-Length Headers address the challenge of fitting modern powerplants into classic GM A-Body chassis. Constructed from heavy gauge steel, each tube features a 1 7/8 inch diameter with a silver ceramic coating that reflects radiant heat and withstands extreme temperatures. Machined flanges measure three eighths inch thick to ensure a leak proof seal at the cylinder head, and the kit arrives complete with gaskets and bolts for straightforward installation. They are also designed to integrate with engine mount kits, providing reliable alignment and robust support for your swap project.
Purpose-Built Fitment for A-Body LS Conversions
These headers are engineered exclusively for LS engine swaps in 1964 through 1967 A-Body models such as the Dart and Barracuda with engine mount kits. By integrating directly with the factory-style mount points, the design guarantees correct engine placement and preserves drivetrain angles. This precision fit eliminates the need for fabrication adjustments, ensuring a true bolt-in installation that maintains suspension clearance and aligns the torque tube or driveshaft without compromise.
Robust Construction and Thermal Management
Each primary tube is crafted from mandrel-bent steel for consistent wall thickness and straight flow paths. A silver ceramic finish covers every runner and the collector to withstand extreme heat and protect surrounding components. The coating reduces under-hood temperatures and helps keep intake air cooler for dense charge delivery. Flanges are machined at 3/8 inch thickness to resist warping and guarantee a leak-proof seal against the cylinder head, even under repeated heat cycles.
Optimized Flow Characteristics and Precision Build
The tubes measure 1 7/8 inch in diameter and transition cleanly into a 3-inch collector to balance exhaust scavenging and backpressure control. Mid length routing offers a compromise between short-y-style headers and long tube designs, preserving low-end torque while freeing up high-rpm power. Consistent tube length and merge angles result from CNC-guided welding, delivering repeatable performance across all units. This exacting process ensures equal pulse timing and maximizes horsepower gains on pump or race fuels alike.
Built from heavy steel with ceramic coating and leak proof flanges, these headers deliver precise fit and reliable performance for your LS conversion.
