Exhaust Header VS Manifold, which is the better choice?
The primary difference between exhaust headers and manifolds is their material and design. Exhaust headers are typically made from lighter, thinner steel, while exhaust manifolds are made of thicker iron. Headers are also longer and more efficient than manifolds. Manifolds tend to create back pressure, which reduces engine performance. In contrast, headers eliminate this issue by giving each cylinder its own exhaust tube, allowing gases to exit more efficiently without creating back pressure. This design leads to improved horsepower and better overall engine performance.
For vehicles equipped with Inline 6 engines, such as those with the Ford 200 Inline 6 headers, headers provide a significant performance boost compared to manifolds, enhancing both power and exhaust sound.

In addition to purchasing this product, Flashark highly recommends that you purchase Flashark and Spelab's new collaborative product, the silicone coolant hose kit; to replace the stock rubber coolant hose in your car's cooling system.
Are silicone coolant hoses better? Coolant hoses transport the coolant—a mixture of water and antifreeze—from the engine to the radiator and back. The coolant absorbs heat from the engine block and heads and then releases this heat through the radiator, where airflow dissipates it away from the vehicle. This continuous flow is crucial for preventing engine overheating, which can lead to severe damage or failure.
