  • Will NOT fit angle plug heads
  • Includes reducers, gaskets and bolts
  • 1-5/8" primary tubes
  • 2-1/2" collector
  • Head Flange Thickness: 0.35"

Overall Assessment

Customer reviews highlight the product's excellent quality and fit. It's an ideal solution for those working in tight spaces, as its design ensures good clearance for parts like the steering column and spark plugs, a feature appreciated by many users. The material quality is robust, and the product even outperforms some well-known brands. It proved particularly useful for custom car builds and various engine projects, fitting perfectly in most circumstances. However, some customers faced issues with steering gear compatibility and spark plug boot clearance. But overall, the product was lauded for its practicality, robustness, and value for money.

Nothing else would fit....

I have a very tight fit requirement on the drivers side, These fit like a charm, giving me the clearance I needed for the steering shaft without adding the complication of an additional joint. I probably should have chosen the AKC coating, but I just was not 100% sure they would fit until I had them in hand. Once I get the motor running and burn off the paint, I may give the DIY ACK coating a try.

I regret buying this product

I researched these headers as best as possible. The info said they would fit my 57 Chevy the info was wrong they wouldn't clear the steering gear . So reluctantly I bent the tube to get the necessary clearance. Now the exhaust is pointed straight through my steering linkage . So now l get to throw them away and try to find some that lets you use a steering sector and steering linkage

I was impressed at the solid construction, thick flanges, and quality welds of the headers. You won't find headers in this price range that will last, these I believe, are the exception. The headers ended up not fitting the way I wanted them to, but I kept them anyway for a future project because of their quality and price.

I put these on my 350 in my 56 Chevy pickup. It has the original steering box and most short tube headers could never clear the steering box. With a small amount of altering, these fit perfect. The finish is high quality and I couldn't be happier.
