{"title":"Engine Headers","description":"\u003cp\u003eInstant increase in horsepower! That's what you get when you replace your factory exhaust manifolds with performance headers. The science behind it is pretty simple - with factory manifolds on an 8-cylinder engine, you have 8 exhaust ports dumping into two manifolds at the engine block, forcing air through 2 pipes at the manifold. This creates a tremendous amount of back pressure. That back pressure decreases horsepower potential, fuel efficiency, and exhaust sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeaders route individual pipes to each exhaust port at the engine block. This decreases the back pressure at the engine and routes the exhaust into 2 collector tubes that creates easier airflow through the rest of the exhaust, however you decided to lay it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust remember that the shortest distance is a straight line. Though you won't likely be able to have perfectly straight exhaust pipes, the less curves the better.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/1857\/collections\/gt500hcat-1-primary__66701.jpg?v=1662572309","url":"https:\/\/www.sstubes.com\/en-de\/collections\/engine-headers.oembed","provider":"SSTubes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
