1991-1996 B-Body LS 1-7/8 Ceramic Coated Mid-Length Header
Installing the 1991-1996 B-Body LS 1-7/8 Ceramic Coated Mid-Length Headers in your swap project addresses tight routing challenges and keeps underhood heat in check. Each 1 7/8 inch primary tube is ceramic coated to trap exhaust heat inside the pipes and shield wiring harnesses and intake manifolds from excessive temperatures. The machined three eighths inch thick flanges provide a flat sealing surface that resists warping and secures a leak free connection against the cylinder heads for consistent scavenging from idle to redline. With factory matched frame clearances plus included gaskets and high grade bolts installation follows the original mounting points so builders can concentrate on tuning their LS powerplant instead of chasing hardware.
Precision Fitment for 1967 to 1969 F Body LS Engine Swaps
The headers are engineered to follow the contours of classic Camaro and Firebird chassis rails, ensuring smooth routing around steering linkages and frame crossmembers. By matching the factory mount geometry, each 1 7/8 inch primary tube preserves exhaust pulse timing and consistent back pressure from idle through the powerband. Machined flanges at three eighths inch thickness guarantee a flat interface against the cylinder heads, resisting distortion under heat and pressure. This exact alignment cuts down on common clearance issues that often require manifold spacers or custom brackets. Builders benefit from a proven fit that reduces trial and error during the installation process.
Advanced Ceramic Layer for Heat Control and Corrosion Resistance
A uniform ceramic barrier coats every primary tube to trap heat within the exhaust stream and lower temperatures under the hood. This thermal management shields nearby components such as wiring harnesses, fuel lines, and intake manifolds from excessive heat soak. Maintaining higher exhaust gas velocity also boosts scavenging efficiency at elevated engine speeds, supporting improved horsepower and torque delivery. The ceramic finish resists rust and pitting even in moisture prone environments, standing up to repeated thermal cycles without flaking. Reduced radiant heat creates a more stable environment for fine tuning ignition timing and air fuel calibration.
Steel Flange Construction for Durable Sealing Integrity
Each header flange is crafted from heavy gauge steel and milled to a consistent three eighths inch thickness for long term reliability. The flat sealing surface ensures a leak free joint against the cylinder head, preventing exhaust leaks that can erode performance and fuel economy. Steel resists cracking under rapid temperature changes and maintains structural rigidity over years of use. Precision welding at the tube to flange junction delivers smooth transitions that optimize flow and eliminate turbulence. Together, these design choices ensure consistent scavenging and back pressure control across the rev range.
Comprehensive Hardware Kit for Streamlined Installation
The headers arrive with all necessary gaskets and high grade bolts matched to the factory flange pattern, removing the need to hunt down additional parts. Inclusion of correct fasteners ensures proper bolt torque from the start, reducing the risk of leaks caused by uneven clamping force or incorrect hardware. By adhering to original mounting points and frame clearances, the kit lets builders focus on engine tuning and chassis setup instead of sourcing components. Clear, step by step instructions guide users through bolt patterns and torque sequences for consistent results. This convenience boosts shop efficiency and cuts overall project time.
These headers deliver precise fitment and dependable heat management for your LS swap.
