E3/E9 Exhaust

Korman-Stahl Headers

These high quality headers provide a 6-10% power increase on stock engines, much more on high performance engines. Engineered for trouble free fit and long service. Also available with ceramic thermal barrier coating (described below) for additional performance, durability and improved appearance.

Notes: (1) Connector length to the center resonator pipe must be shortened. If a 4 speed model has been converted to a 5 speed, must trim the edge of the transmission support bracket. (2) Only for 3.0, 3.3, 3.5 engines over 270HP, must radius edge of engine casting for clearance.

Exhaust Manifold Porting

A careful porting and polishing of the exhaust manifolds. We then precisely mate the exhaust manifold gaskets to the exhaust manifold for maximum flow. Especially effective with Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating. An excellent alternative where headers are not an option.

Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating

From Aerospace technology comes this oven baked metallic/ceramic finish that is far superior to ordinary header paints. In salt spray testing where high temperature paints lasted 40-50 hours, the ceramic coating lasted over 5,000 hours. The ceramic thermal barrier finish also coats the inside of the pipe. The thermal barrier will reduce underhood temperatures and testing has shown horsepower gains due to combustion chamber stabilization and increased gas velocity.
