Frequently Asked Questions
Will these headers fit my engine bay without modification?
Long tube headers can be tight in stock engine bays depending on your specific year and ancillary components. Test-fit before committing to permanent fastening, and be prepared for potential clearance work on items like power steering hoses or brake lines.
Do I need to paint these or can I run them raw?
Stainless steel can be left unpainted and will develop a natural patina over time. If you prefer a finished look, you can apply high-temp paint or ceramic coating—just handle them with care before install to avoid fingerprint marks.
What gaskets and fasteners do I need for installation?
You'll need header gaskets and mounting hardware that match your engine's factory bolt pattern. The headers ship as a bare assembly, so source gaskets and fasteners separately based on your specific Small Block variant.
