LS Ceramic Coated Mid-Length Headers for F-Body
If you are installing an LS powerplant in a 1970 to 1981 F Body chassis these 1 7/8 inch ceramic coated headers deliver consistent exhaust flow while controlling under hood temperature. Moreover a reflective ceramic barrier helps keep radiant heat out of the engine bay and shields critical components from heat soak. Installation is straightforward thanks to flanges that match factory mounting points and permit a bolt on fit without frame modifications.
Steel Headers with Ceramic Coating for Improved Heat Control
Constructed from durable steel, these headers offer the strength required for LS power delivery while minimizing weight. The silver ceramic coating forms a heat resistant barrier that reflects radiant energy back into the exhaust path and away from wiring, hoses, and intake parts. By keeping underhood temperatures in check, the coating helps prevent heat soak that can sap performance and accelerate wear on nearby components. Over time, this protective layer also guards against rust and heat fatigue, contributing to longer service intervals and more dependable operation.
Optimized 1 7/8 Inch Primary Tubes for Enhanced Scavenging
The carefully chosen 1 7/8 inch tube diameter is sized to match the exhaust pulse characteristics of LS engines, promoting efficient scavenging across the rpm range. Consistent tube length and smooth bends ensure balanced exhaust pulses, which translate into a broader torque curve and smoother throttle response. Drivers will notice improved midrange pull and a more linear power band at highway speeds. This precise geometry helps reduce back pressure and allows the engine to breathe more freely.
Precision Flange Design Ensuring Leak Free Seals
Each flange is machined to a thickness of 3/8 inch to maintain a flat, stable surface where the header meets the cylinder head. This dimensionally accurate interface is essential for creating a reliable seal and preventing exhaust leaks that can erode performance and pose noise concerns. The flanges align with factory mounting points, reducing stress on bolts and gaskets for uninterrupted power delivery. By preserving gasket integrity, the design also lowers the need for frequent retorquing on both street and track applications.
Simple Bolt On Installation for Straightforward Swaps
The bolt on approach streamlines the fitting process by using existing frame and block holes, eliminating the need for cutting or drilling. Included gaskets and hardware ensure a complete setup that installs quickly with common hand tools. This user friendly method saves time and simplifies the swap, letting enthusiasts focus on tuning rather than fabrication. Even those new to engine conversions can achieve a precise fit and dependable performance without specialized equipment.
