Which Shorty Headers clear 6 bolt heads?
 
Besides ARH, which shorty headers clear 6 bolt heads?

Currently, I'm using a factory Gen 5 Camaro manifold on the driver side of my turbo kit. Ill be going to a 6 bolt block/heads and want to keep my current turbo kit so, I need a shorty that would bolt to the factory exhaust.

If anyone has a set of ARH Shorty Headers for sale, please send me a PM.

Thanks.

Looks like they want $799/manifold. I'll keep looking.

You can also have your exhaust manifolds clearanced to clear the 6 bolt heads. If I can find pics of mine, I will link them here. When my car was at CPR for the AGP install, they did it or had it done. I cannot remember.

I saw that when I initially began my search for fitment solutions...still may try it.


Both Hedman and Holley also make stainless shorty headers for $500-$600 a set. Just dont know if they'll clear.

I read the thread where the ARH shorty headers on a twin turbo kit made a substantial difference in hp and tq with no other changes. Anyone else have input on this?

I have a set of Hooker Blackheart 1 7/8 shories that I will be putting on a 427 with Frankenstien heads and an AGP TT kit. I believe I may have to do some work to make them fit. They appear to mock up fine. I haven't gotten to that part of the install quite yet, hoping for next week.

Send an update on fitment when you find out.

I got the headers to fit. I had to dent each header. I will get pictures of where tomorrow when I get to work. As long as your engine is at factory height the steering shaft will clear. Mine was lowered and I raised it back up.

I am getting some knowledge yet I am a few hours old here!

Bravo loving it!

Hope these pics help. First is driverside. It is hard to take a pic or see the bolt the header needs to clear in the 3rd and 4th pic. Zoom in and you will see it.

FYI, incase anyone is interested I just got a reply from Kooks and they said their shorty headers do not clear 6 bolt heads.

Surprisingly, the $130 eBay shorties clear quite well. I don't think they're a permanent solution, but ARH are 5+ weeks out.. and I need a solution to keep the project movinghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a3e714e26d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9faf6dcd1c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...595fbf4ab7.jpg

Have you ran these? Or just text fitting.
