1988-1998 2WD Truck LS Headers with Ceramic Coating

Robust 16 gauge steel forms the core of these 1-7/8in mid length headers, optimizing exhaust flow and throttle response for 1988-1998 GM 2WD trucks with LS swaps. Ceramic coating traps heat to slash engine bay temperatures and shield against corrosion while plug and play fitment delivers aggressive tone, extra horsepower and better fuel efficiency on daily drives.

1-7/8 Inch Ceramic Coated LS Mid-Length Headers for 2WD Trucks

When installing an LS powerplant in a 1988-1998 2WD GM pickup, finding headers that control underhood heat while maximizing scavenging can be a challenge. These 1-7/8 inch ceramic coated mid length headers are engineered to address that by using smooth mandrel bends and precision tube diameters for optimized exhaust flow, which sharpens throttle response and lifts torque across the rev range. Constructed from 16 gauge steel with a reflective ceramic finish, they shield adjacent components from excessive temperatures and resist corrosion under the rocker panel. A direct fit to factory mounting points means you can drop them onto the LS engine block with minimal adjustments, making it a plug and play solution for both seasoned builders and newcomers to LS swaps.

Precision Tuned One and Seven Eighths Inch Tube Geometry

The primary tubes measure one and seven eighths inch in diameter and use smooth mandrel bends to ensure exhaust gases exit the combustion chamber with minimal resistance. By matching tube size to the engine's exhaust pulse, this geometry enhances scavenging and cuts backpressure, yielding sharper throttle response and a noticeable torque boost throughout the rev range. The mid length configuration tucks close to the frame rails, preserving underhood space for other performance parts. This exacting design maintains exhaust gas velocity for consistent power delivery at all engine speeds.

Ceramic Heat Shielding for Cooler Engine Bays

The reflective ceramic coating serves as a thermal barrier that deflects radiant heat away from sensitive wiring, hoses, and brake lines. Underhood temperatures can drop by up to fifty degrees Fahrenheit, protecting nearby components and improving overall engine efficiency. The finish also seals the steel surface against moisture and road salts, dramatically reducing corrosion risk over time. By retaining higher internal exhaust temperatures, gases maintain velocity for smoother flow and repeatable performance.

16 Gauge Steel Strength and Corrosion Resistance

Constructed from 16 gauge steel, these headers stand up to continual thermal cycling without warping or cracking. Steel's inherent rigidity dampens unwanted vibration and preserves a deep, aggressive exhaust tone. The generous wall thickness also offers protection against road debris impacts and mechanical wear for reliable daily use. Over years of service, the headers hold precise alignment with factory mounting points, ensuring a leak free seal and lasting performance.

User Friendly Direct Fit for 1988 to 1998 2WD GM Pickups

Engineered to align with factory mounting points on two wheel drive GM pickups from 1988 to 1998, these headers drop in without drilling or trimming. The kit includes gaskets, grade-8 bolts, and clear instructions to walk you through each step, making installation straightforward for both seasoned builders and first time LS swap enthusiasts. Correct alignment from the start avoids common clearance issues around the oil filter and steering shaft. This plug and play approach saves hours of labor while guaranteeing a precise fit.

Engineered for a precise fit and reliable performance in your LS swap.
