  • HOT RODS, STREET RODS, RAT RODS & NOSTALGIA RODS ARE HOTTER THAN EVER, AND NOTHING GIVES YOUR VINTAGE ROD THAT RACY LOOK AND SOUND LIKE A SET OF OUR HEADERS. THESE ARE THE SIMPLEST FLAT HEAD FORD V-8 HEADERS THAT WE PRODUCE. 3 INTO 1 ALL 1-3/4" TUBES WITH NO COLLECTOR, THESE HEADERS ARE DESIGNED TO HAVE THE EXHAUST WELDED STRAIGHT TO THE 1-3/4" OUTLET PIPES.

ALTHOUGH THESE ARE 42-48 FORD CAR SPECIFIC HEADERS, THEY WILL FIT MANY OTHER APPLICATIONS WITH USUALLY A MINIMUM OF CHANGES. CERAMIC HOT COATING (CHC) IS A HEAT RESISTANT, CERAMIC COATING APPLIED TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE HEADER. THIS COATING WILL REFLECT HEAT, WHICH HELPS RETAIN MORE HEAT WITHIN THE HEADER TUBE, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY SPEEDING UP THE EXHAUST FLOW.
