These small block Chevy tight fit headers work well on early hot rods with narrow frame widths due to the slim 4″ distance from the flange to outermost point, 1-5/8″ primary tubes and 2-1/2″ collectors aid in fitting tight clearance applications, These come painted black for corrosion protection prior to use – we suggest stripping the paint and applying your preferred color of high temperature header paint, 2 1/2″ diameter mandrel bent tubes curve back a at 90 degree angle and are offset outward to clear the bell housing and starter, Premium 16 gauge mild steel tubing allows for easy welding and fabrication. Tight-Fit Small Block Chevy Block Hugger Headers & Extention Kit. These small block Chevy tight-fit headers are the most universal steel tube shorty headers available. They even fit difficult applications where space is limited. The block hugger headers are a favorite for street rods, as well as many 1950s and 1960s cars and vintage trucks. Most tight fit header applications require the use of Accel shorty spark plugs. Will NOT fit angle plug heads. Includes reducers, gaskets and bolts. Head Flange Thickness: 0.35. Using this kit makes the hook-up of your exhaust system a snap! The 2-1/2 diameter, 16-gauge, mandrel-bent tubes curve back at a 90° angle and are offset outward to clear the bellhousing and starter. They drop 10-1/2″ from the header flange and they extend backward 17-1/2″ after the 90 degree bend. Just trim the length, weld on the 9/32 thick collector flange (included, with gaskets) and you’re all set! Works great with any tight-fit headers. Can be used with most oil filter systems and transmission/starter combinations. Will not fit’55-’57 Chevy cars, Camaros, or other modern vehicles which have a crossmember below the engine’s center two exhaust ports. Will not clear a “clam shell” style motor mount (found on 1973-newer Chevy cars & trucks). Will not clear angle plug heads.
