Default A.R. Headers C3 Big Block Headers Available Now!

Hey Guys,

Actually they've been available for the past few months but we've been slow to get it on the CF. The headers come in 1-7/8" or 2" with either round, square/oval (which is what factory iron heads have) or D-Port flanges. We will need to know what port configuration you have when ordering.

The headers are all 304 S/S and 100% USA made. They feature merge collectors with scavenger spikes and come with a short pair of connection pipes to give the end user a starting point for their exhaust. We can add O2 sensor bungs for those using fuel injection. They will work with stick or automatic transmissions.

Like everything we manufacture, these headers are built to last indefinitely. They Do Not require ceramic coating for thermal barrier purposes. They will never rust or corrode. Ground clearance and plug access is excellent. You will not be melting plug wires. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

It’s something we will tackle when we have an opportunity. I’m fairly confident we can use these same headers. We need to locate someone that’s looking to have headers and sidepipes built and willing to allow to perform the prototype work.

How do they not require a thermal barrier coating? What is the outlet temp at the pipe, running, at idle?
