After years of providing 320/6, 323 headers, our suppliers have discontinued them. We will add them to our offerings as soon as we have a reliable source available.

Exhaust Manifold Porting

A careful porting and polishing of the exhaust manifolds. We then precisely mate the exhaust manifold gasket to the exhaust manifold for maximum flow. Especially effective when combined with Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating. We have several core manifolds on hand often allowing us to ship on an exchange basis and keep your downtime to a minimum.

Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating

The ceramic coating provides superior corrosion protection, stain resistance, increased gas velocity and combustion chamber stabilization. Even if scratched or chipped its unique self-sacrificial properties won't allow oxides to form under the coating. Unlike other coatings, both the inside and outside of the exhaust manifold is coated. Expect underhood temperatures to be reduced by 20 or 30%.
