Exhaust headers are components in a vehicle's exhaust system that improve engine performance by directing exhaust gases away from the engine more efficiently. They replace the factory exhaust manifold and are designed to reduce back pressure, allowing for better airflow and increased horsepower and torque. By optimizing the exhaust flow, headers can enhance engine responsiveness and overall efficiency. Additionally, they often contribute to a more aggressive engine sound.

If you put headers on an 1978 elcamino do i have to change the whole exhaust?
The answer would be "No, you don't have to". If you installed exhaust headers to improve performance then you might consider if your current exhaust system compliments the headers. Headers are designed to help evacuate exhaust gases and minimize back pressure. If an engine has exhaust headers that collect into a small single muffler and pipe then the effort is somewhat defeated. BUT, if the headers are installed for the "cool factor", and there is nothing wrong with that, then go ahead and use the stock pipes or as much as you can.

What are headers and do they help MPG?
Headers are aftermarket replacements for the exhaust maniflods. They are the parts bolted directly to the heads on the sides of the engine. They channel the exhaust from each cylinder down to the exhaust pipes. :)
What gives you better performance headers or manifolds?
Headers. Because less or no exhaust back pressure.
How do you install headers into a 1983 Chevy Camaro?
The old exhaust manifold will need to be removed. The new headers will either have to be made to fit the engine well, or the inner fenders will have to be modified to fit. Then the headers will need to be either mated to the old exhaust or a new exhaust system will need to be installed. In a v8 engine installation most people prefer a dual exhaust to maximize the headers capability.
What are open headers in a car?
Open headers are essentially an open exhaust system with no mufflers or catalog converters
Are open headers illegal in PA?
Yes, open headers are illegal in Pennsylvania. Vehicles must have a properly functioning exhaust system that includes a muffler and exhaust pipes to direct the exhaust gases out of the vehicle. Driving with open headers can result in a citation and fine.
Where are the O2 sensors located on a 1993 3.8 Ford Taurus?
