Patriot Full-Length Street Rod Headers
Patriot full length street rod headers provide the ultimate in performance for street rods and musclecars with high performance engines. The key is their use of long primary tubes, which result in more horsepower and torque than those from the competition. Other features include a close fit with the engine block for maximum chassis and steering clearance, mandrel-bent tubing that's available in your choice of bare or ceramic coated finishes, and new gaskets and bolts. Unless otherwise noted, these headers are designed to fit the vehicle as it came from the manufacturer. This includes components like cylinder heads, chassis, steering, motor mounts, body mounts and bushings, etc. If your vehicle is using aftermarket components, parts from other applications, or custom altered parts, then it is the installer's responsibility to verify fitment. Finishes available are: * Metallic Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating (MCTBC), which is polished with a vibratory finishing process that not only produces a high-luster aluminum appearance, but also compresses and activates the coating, which increases the surface hardness. The finish is 60 percent more corrosion resistant than an unpolished surface, easy to maintain, and will last for years under normal operation conditions. MCTBC also protects and extends the life of headers by creating a thermal barrier (heat-resistant up to 1,600 degrees F) that significantly lowers under hood temperatures and protects the substrate metal from thermal fatigue. * Hi-Temp black coating is an affordably priced alternative to their MCTBC. This finish provides good corrosion and heat protection when compared to many of the "cheaper" header finishes being applied by our competitors. * Raw steel is available for individual customizing

Hedman Tight Tubes Street Rod Headers
Hedman Tight Tubes offer the lowest profile header collector available. Chosen by professional car builders and seasoned gearheads, with Hedman's innovative 4-into-1 Tight Tubes the collector tucks the header tubes and hook-ups against the engine block for more component clearance than ordinary street rod headers. And, the larger volume collector design provides exhaust flow that surpasses standard block hugging designs. Available in mild steel with 16-gauge header tubes uncoated and coated. The HTC silver and Black Maxx ceramic-metallic coatings offer superior heat insulation and anti-corrosion properties to protect your "Hedder" investment and retain more heat inside the header tubes for increased exhaust velocity and improved scavenging. For tight engine compartments, choose Hedman Tight Tubes—the headers that go where ordinary headers won't.

Flowtech Lakester Street Rod Headers
Flowtech Lakester headers deliver classic styling taken from the early dry lake and Bonneville speed racers--perfect for vintage lake-style street rods. They feature high-low, mandrel-bent tubes to provide consistent diameters for smooth flow and increased exhaust velocity. The heavy-duty tubing and high-quality welds guarantee strength and durability. Smooth-transition, 1 5/8 in. diameter primary tubes are used for better exhaust flow--optimizing performance and throttle response, as well as broadening the torque curve. The long-transition velocity collector connects to an undercar exhaust, and the block-off plate can be removed for maximum sound output. The Flowtech Lakester Street Rod headers are TIG-welded, with machined 3/8 in. flanges for a strong, leak-free seal. They also include premium aluminum header gaskets and installation hardware.

Flowtech Headers
Flowtech headers are designed to provide optimum exhaust flow for increased horsepower, torque, fuel economy, and improved throttle response. Leak-tested for maximum performance, they feature the industry's best welds for durability and are carefully engineered for precise fit. Available for a wide range of applications, they're offered in block hugger, competition, fenderwell, lakester, long tube, mid-length, shorty, upright, and turbo styles. Varying with the application, Flowtech headers are constructed from sturdy and lightweight cold-rolled mild steel or stainless steel for increased strength and durability. All tubing is mandrel-bent to provide consistent tubing diameter for smooth flow and increased exhaust velocity. Extra-thick, machined header flanges provide a leak-free seal and maximum strength. For long-term rust and corrosion-resistance, available finishes include natural and polished stainless steel, high heat-resistant black paint, or a satin silver metallic ceramic thermal barrier coating. All mounting hardware and premium gaskets are included. Important notes: Breaking in an engine with ceramic coated headers WILL result in damage to the coating and will VOID all warranties. Ceramic coated headers require several heat cycles to fully cure before they will withstand extreme heat. Hooker recommends using cast iron exhaust manifolds or old headers to break in new engines to avoid coating damage. Flowtech does not recommend the use of header wraps as this will void the warranty.
