HEADER,SBC,1 5/8",63-82 CORVETTE,LONG TUBE,3",CHROME PLATED

Brand New Pair of Southwest Speed Triple Process Chrome Plated Long Tube Headers for 1963-1982 Corvette's with Small Block Chevy 262-400ci Engines (Part #440-2232).

This Pair of Southwest Speed Small Block Chevy Long Tube Headers offer an immediate increase in performance by eliminating backpressure, improving exhaust flow, and building more horsepower. Constructed from cold-rolled, flash-controlled 16-gauge steel tubing and finished with a black satin paint or silver ceramic heat resistant coating these headers are equipped with an O-ring port seal and 5/16" flanges that are heavy enough to maintain complete integrity, yet pliable enough to create a leak free seal. The consistent tubing diameter contributes to the smooth air flow and greater exhaust velocity of these carefully engineered headers while the precision welded collectors give you a perfect fit. Headers do not have an internal coating.

Chrome Warning:

Due to a revised chroming process brought on by recent EPA regulations and high labor costs, todays chrome is not the quality of days gone by. Be aware: exhaust components which are chrome plated are now much more susceptible to blueing, blistering, peeling & corrosion. We see very few headers that do not change color once exhaust temperatures are achieved. No warranty or returns on chrome exhaust items once they have been installed.

Header Return Policy:

Please refer to the header measurement chart below to make sure the header will fit your vehicle and application before ordering. In the event you order a header that will not fit your vehicle and application, you may return them for a refund, providing you don't damage the header. When you receive the header the finish will be protected and must remain unscratched for a refund. If you bend or dimple any of the tubes or scratch the finish, we will not be able to sell the header and will not be able to process a refund. Use care when trial fitting headers. Repack them well to prevent damage returning them to us. We won't process refunds for scratched, dimpled, dented, or bent headers.
