1988-1998 2WD LS Truck 1-7/8in Ceramic Headers

Optimized exhaust flow and silver ceramic coating deliver improved throttle response, cooler underhood temperatures and an aggressive tone for your GM 2WD LS swap. Precision 16 gauge steel construction resists warping and corrosion for reliable performance while ensuring plug and play installation and better fuel economy on daily drives.

Ceramic Coated 1-7/8in Mid-Length Headers for 1988-1998 2WD LS Trucks

If you are installing an LS engine in a 1988-1998 2WD GM pickup these 1-7/8in ceramic coated headers deliver improved throttle response and exhaust scavenging. Their precise 1-7/8in tubes and smooth bends provide optimized exhaust flow for noticeable gains in horsepower and torque without excess heat under the hood. Constructed from 16 gauge steel with a ceramic finish they resist corrosion and shield adjacent components from high temperatures. A direct fit design matches factory mounting points for a straightforward installation once factory manifolds are removed.

Optimized Tube Geometry for One and Seven Eighths Inch Mid-length Headers

These headers use precisely sized one and seven eighths inch primary tubes paired with smooth mandrel bends to enhance exhaust scavenging and reduce backpressure. By balancing tube length and diameter, the design promotes a more complete evacuation of combustion gases, directly improving throttle response and increasing peak torque. The mid-length configuration also fits closer to the frame rails, freeing up underhood space for other performance components. Altogether, this geometry upgrade delivers both measurable horsepower gains and a more responsive driving feel.

Ceramic Coating for Superior Thermal Management

The ceramic finish serves as a high?temperature barrier, reflecting radiant heat away from critical engine bay components and lowering underhood temperatures by as much as 50°F. This coating also seals the steel surface against moisture and contaminants, greatly reducing the risk of corrosion over time. With improved heat retention inside the tubes, exhaust gases maintain velocity for efficient flow, contributing to consistent performance on every drive.

16 Gauge Steel Construction for Rigidity and Resistance

Manufactured from heavy gauge steel, these headers resist warping and maintain dimensional integrity even under extreme thermal cycling. Steel's natural damping properties help mute unwanted vibration and harshness, ensuring a solid acoustic profile while preserving the deeper exhaust note. The robust wall thickness also stands up to road debris and routine wear, offering years of dependable service without cracking or fatigue failures.

Direct Fit Integration Streamlines LS Swap Installation

Engineered to match factory mounting points on 1988-1998 two-wheel-drive GM trucks, these headers require no drilling or trimming for installation. The included gaskets and grade-8 bolts ensure a leak-free connection from the start, while the illustrated instructions guide you through each step. This plug-and-play approach not only saves labor time but also guarantees correct alignment and clearance, making it ideal for both seasoned builders and first-time LS swap enthusiasts.

Designed for a direct fit and reliable performance.
