1-7/8 Ceramic Coated LS Long Tube Headers for 1955-1957 Chevy Truck
For any LS engine swap into a 1955-1957 Chevy truck these 1-7/8 ceramic coated long tube headers deliver the precise fit and exhaust flow your build demands. Their smooth mandrel bends and sturdy 3/8 inch flanges hold a tight seal and direct exhaust with minimal resistance. The ceramic finish keeps under hood heat in check while V band collectors and included hardware simplify installation for a clean setup.
Precision Crafted Fit for LS Engine Swaps
Every bend and tube length in these long tube headers is engineered to match the firewall, frame rails, and engine mount points of 1955-1957 Chevy trucks when paired with LS platforms. This meticulous alignment eliminates the need for cutting or welding during installation, cutting setup time and reducing stress on the exhaust ports. The mandrel bends maintain a consistent internal diameter, ensuring smooth exhaust flow from the cylinder head to the collector. With a precise fit, distortion and vibration are minimized, so the headers hold their shape even under high thermal loads.
Advanced Ceramic Coating for Underhood Heat Control
The ceramic finish applied to each header tube acts as a thermal barrier, reflecting radiant heat back into the exhaust stream and away from sensitive engine bay components. By keeping underhood temperatures in check, this coating protects wiring, hoses, and intake components from heat soak. It also helps preserve the metal's structural integrity and limits oxidation, extending the life of the headers under repeated heat cycles. The result is more stable intake air temperatures and improved overall engine efficiency.
Robust Steel Construction with Thick Flange Seal
Constructed from high-grade steel, these headers withstand vibration and repeated expansion and contraction without cracking. The 3/8 inch thick flange provides a flat, rigid sealing surface that resists warping at high temperatures, maintaining a consistent gasket seal against the cylinder head. This solid connection prevents exhaust leaks that can sap horsepower and introduce unwanted noise. Built to hold up under daily driving or hard launches, the steel tubes and flanges deliver reliable performance over many seasons.
Efficient V band Collector System for Leak-Free Joints
The V band collector simplifies the transition from header to mid-pipe with a single clamp that delivers uniform clamp load around the entire circumference. This design allows for fast, tool-light assembly and disassembly during maintenance or setup changes, without compromising the seal. Included gaskets and hardware ensure the proper fit and torque, so exhaust gases stay contained within the system. By eliminating bulky flange bolts and gaskets, the V band setup also saves space and reduces overall system weight.
