Key Features

JBA Shorty Headers incorporate advanced design elements and high-quality materials to maximize performance and longevity. Key features include:

• Mandrel bent stainless steel tubing for smooth exhaust flow and minimal restriction
• Proprietary JBA Firecone collector design that optimizes scavenging and torque delivery
• Factory-style emission connections to maintain compliance and ease of installation
• Extra thick collector domes for enhanced durability and heat resistance
• 3/8" thick machined flanges with oversized exhaust ports for a precise, leak-free seal
• Silver ceramic coating that provides corrosion resistance and helps manage under-hood temperatures
• Includes high-quality hardware for a professional, no-leak installation

Construction & Design

Crafted from premium stainless steel, JBA Shorty Headers are built to endure the harsh conditions of performance driving and daily use. The mandrel bent tubing ensures consistent diameter throughout the bends, reducing turbulence and backpressure. The Firecone collector is a race-proven design that enhances exhaust gas scavenging, improving power output where it matters most.

The headers feature thick, machined flanges with oversized ports that match the exhaust manifold openings precisely, ensuring a tight seal and preventing leaks. The silver ceramic coating not only adds a sleek appearance but also protects the headers from rust and helps dissipate heat, contributing to improved engine bay temperatures.

Performance & Sound

By replacing restrictive factory manifolds with JBA Shorty Headers, drivers can expect noticeable improvements in horsepower and torque across the RPM range. The enhanced exhaust flow reduces engine strain and improves throttle response, making acceleration smoother and more immediate. Additionally, these headers contribute to a more aggressive exhaust note, enhancing the iconic muscle car sound without excessive drone.

Installation & Fitment

Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the 2015–2024 Chrysler 300 and 2015–2023 Dodge Challenger and Charger equipped with 6.4L 392 or 6.2L Hellcat engines, JBA Shorty Headers install using factory mounting points and hardware. The inclusion of factory-style emission connections ensures compatibility with stock emissions equipment, simplifying installation and maintaining legal compliance where applicable.

Installation typically requires basic hand tools and moderate mechanical knowledge. No cutting or welding is necessary, making these headers an accessible upgrade for experienced DIYers and professional installers alike.
