Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy gaskets and bolts separately?
Yes. The header ships without gaskets or fasteners. Grab a quality header gasket set and stainless bolts rated for exhaust heat before install day.
Will this header work with my stock exhaust manifold gaskets?
No — stock manifold gaskets aren't designed for header ports. Use a proper header gasket rated for your platform.
Does the header require any surface prep or coating before installation?
The stainless tubing is ready to bolt on as-is. If you're wrapping the header, do that before mount to avoid trapping moisture against the steel.
