Why Choose Long Tube Headers?

• Improved Performance: Long tube headers allow exhaust gases to exit the engine more freely, reducing backpressure and improving airflow. This results in noticeable horsepower and torque gains, giving your Chevy or GMC SBC 305/350 a stronger, more responsive feel.
• Enhanced Exhaust Sound: Enjoy a deeper, more aggressive tone that highlights the V8’s natural power without being excessively loud.
• Durable, High-Quality Material: Crafted from T304 stainless steel, these headers resist corrosion, withstand high temperatures, and maintain a polished, showroom-quality appearance over time.

Stock Manifolds vs Flashark Long Tube Headers

• Better Exhaust Flow: Stock manifolds are compact and designed mainly for cost and packaging, limiting airflow. Flashark long tube headers provide a smoother, more direct path for exhaust gases.
• Performance Gains: Reduced backpressure improves horsepower and torque, giving your engine a stronger, more responsive feel.
• Durable Construction: T304 stainless steel ensures long-lasting reliability and resistance to corrosion and high temperatures.
• Lighter Design: The headers’ lightweight construction reduces overall engine weight while improving efficiency.

Shorty Headers vs Long Tube Headers

• Installation & Cost: Shorty headers are easier to fit and generally less expensive, making them a great option for mild upgrades or entry-level performance.
• Performance: Long tube headers are engineered to optimize exhaust flow, delivering noticeable horsepower and torque gains, especially at higher RPMs, for 305/350 small block Chevy engines.
• Sound: Expect a deeper, more aggressive V8 tone that enhances the driving experience.
• Considerations: Installation of long tube headers may require adjustments to mid-pipes or catalytic converters, but the improved performance and exhaust note make them ideal for enthusiasts seeking maximum engine potential.
