LS 1-7/8-inch Ceramic Coated Long Tube Headers for 1991-1996 B-Body
When you swap an LS engine into a 1991-1996 B-body, the 1991-1996 B-body LS 1-7/8 Ceramic Coated Long Tube Headers tackle exhaust routing and underhood heat control right out of the box. Boasting precise factory port alignment and thick mild steel flanges, these headers eliminate the need for adapter plates and reduce clearance conflicts around frame rails and engine mounts. The ceramic coating locks heat inside the primaries to improve pulse scavenging while cutting temperatures under the hood, protecting nearby wiring and intake components. Complete with gaskets, bolts and V-band clamps the package includes everything needed for a clean installation and leak-free seal.
Precision Fit Engineering for B-Body LS Exhaust Alignment
These headers are engineered to match the factory exhaust outlets and engine mount positions on 1991-1996 B-body chassis, removing the need for adapter plates or custom brackets. Exact tube geometry preserves exhaust pulse timing and ensures smooth flow from the cylinder head, which helps maintain consistent engine performance. By reducing clearance conflicts around frame rails and motor mounts, installation time is cut and fabrication costs are eliminated. This precision fit design also means fewer adjustments during initial setup, allowing builders to focus on tuning and driving rather than alignment issues.
Ceramic Coating Benefits for Thermal Efficiency
The ceramic finish on each 1-7/8 inch primary tube locks heat inside the header, boosting exhaust gas velocity and improving scavenging in the combustion chamber. Retaining thermal energy within the tubes lowers underhood temperatures, which protects nearby wiring harnesses and intake components from heat degradation. Over time, this barrier slows scale buildup and resists corrosion, delivering more consistent results across repeated heat cycles. By controlling engine compartment heat, air intake temperatures stay cooler, preserving power output.
Durable Steel Construction with Reinforced Flanges
Crafted from robust mild steel, these headers can withstand high stress and repeated heating cycles without warping or fatigue. The beefy 3/8 inch thick flanges provide a rigid mounting surface that resists distortion and ensures a tight seal against the cylinder head. Maintaining flange integrity prevents exhaust leaks that can rob power and introduce unwanted noise. This solid construction also supports reliable torque retention on head bolts, guarding against gasket failure under heavy load.
V Band Collector for Secure Exhaust Sealing
The integrated V band collector offers a simple clamp design that delivers a secure, leak free connection at the junction of the primaries. Quick release and re-clamp capability make future disassembly for maintenance or performance upgrades far easier than traditional bolt-flange systems. Consistent sealing pressure around the joint eliminates the risk of exhaust leaks that can hamper drivability or generate cabin noise. This reliable collector layout also allows for streamlined routing into mid-pipes and mufflers without complex bracketing.
This MuscleRods header delivers precise alignment and lasting reliability for your 1991 to 1996 B body LS swap.
