Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need new exhaust bolts or gaskets?
The header itself doesn't include fasteners or gaskets — grab a fresh set of header bolts and a high-temp gasket before you bolt it down. Reusing old hardware can lead to leaks.
Will this need ceramic coating or paint before installation?
Stainless steel doesn't rust, so coating is optional. If you want a finished look or heat management, apply ceramic or high-temp paint before install — the surface will need light prep first.
Does this bolt straight to the engine block?
Yes — it mounts at the factory bolt locations on your block with no modifications needed. You'll still need to match it to your existing downpipe or exhaust system downstream.
