1-7/8 Ceramic Coated LS Mid-Length Headers for 1965-1970 B-Body
When you retrofit a 1965-1970 B-Body with an LS powerplant the exhaust path must clear suspension components and support power delivery. The 1965-1970 B-Body LS 1-7/8 Ceramic Coated Mid Length Headers feature precisely bent tubes that hug the frame rails while smoothing flow out of each bank. A durable ceramic shell contains underhood heat and leaves a clean appearance. Plus the 3/8 inch thick flanges lock in a leak free seal and the included gaskets and hardware keep installation straightforward.
Precision Fit Design for LS Engine Conversions
The header tubes are engineered with exact bends to follow the 1965-1970 B-Body frame rails, ensuring a direct path from the exhaust ports to the collector. This alignment minimizes interference with suspension components and simplifies installation when used with matching LS conversion mount kits. By maintaining consistent tube spacing and angle, these headers reduce stress on the head flanges and preserve the factory bolt pattern. The result is a seamless fit that cuts setup time and guarantees proper manifold clearance throughout the powerband.
Ceramic Shell for Underhood Heat Management
Featuring a durable silver ceramic coating, these headers lock in radiant heat and lower underhood temperatures by up to 50 percent compared with uncoated steel. The coating forms a thin barrier that resists abrasion and prevents scale buildup on the exterior of the tubes. By keeping more heat inside the exhaust stream, exhaust velocity improves and scavenging gains become more pronounced at higher rpm. A polished finish also enhances the appearance of your engine bay without sacrificing functional performance.
Robust Flange Construction for Leak Free Seal
Each flange is a solid 3/8 inch thick to maintain perfect flatness under extreme torque and thermal cycling. The added mass resists warping, guaranteeing that the supplied gaskets compress evenly when torqued to spec. This heavy?duty flange design keeps exhaust gases from escaping under boost or during hard launches, preserving horsepower and protecting head gasket integrity. Precision machining ensures consistent port alignment, so bolt holes match up exactly with LS cylinder head ports every time.
Steel Tubing Built to Withstand Racing and Road Use
Constructed from high?grade steel, these midlength headers deliver the durability needed for both street driving and track duty. Steel's natural strength tolerates repeated heating and cooling cycles without cracking or bending, while TIG?style welds maintain structural integrity at each joint. The 1-7/8 inch diameter strikes a balance between low-end torque and top-end power, making this design ideal for daily commutes as well as weekend track sessions. Included gaskets and hardware complete the package for a reliable, long-term installation.
Engineered for a precise fit and reliable performance on your LS conversion.
