This Header kit fits Small Block Ford 260-302ci Engines (SWS Part #440-2483, 440-2983).

This Southwest Speed Lake Style Header Kit with 3 1/2" Ceramic Hot Coated turnouts is great for Hot Rods, Street Rods, Rat Rods & Nostalgia Rods, and are hotter than ever & nothing gives your vintage rod that authentic dry lakes competition look like a set of lake style headers and now you can build them yourself and customize them to your vehicle. All tubing comes pre-bent with enough parts to complete both sides. Supplied with 22-1/2" tapered 1-5/8" to 3-1/2" mega-phones. The mega-phones are supplied un-cut, just the 1-5/8" inlet and 3-1/2" diameter outlets, to allow almost any configuration desired by cutting and welding tubes where the customer desires. Originally designed to blow across the salt flats of Bonneville, these exposed Small Block Ford headers work great on rods without hoods, but are often used with side skirts trimmed up to fit around the headers. Running the turnouts delivers the true horsepower of the Small Block Ford but each lake style header has a bottom exit flange so you can connect it to a muffled under-car exhaust. This will require unbolting the turnouts, & installing the endcaps. The Headers feature 1-5/8" primary tubes merging to the 3-1/2" collectors, & comes complete with header bolts and gaskets, reducer bolts and gaskets, and end cap bolts and gaskets. Supplied with precision cut 3/8" thick flanges to enhance the experience of assembling this quality header kit. Also includes the flanges and tubing to assemble a set of 2-1/2" connectors to complete the installation. The 3 1/2" Diameter Turnouts are supplied with precision cut 1/4" thick x 5 1/2" Diameter Flanges, complete with bolts and gaskets. Fits angle or straight plug heads, no spark plug or spark plug wire restrictions.
