Construction & Design:
BBK’s shorty headers are crafted from high-quality steel tubing, CNC mandrel bent to maintain consistent diameter and smooth bends that optimize exhaust gas flow. The thick laser-cut flanges provide a robust mounting surface that resists warping under extreme heat, ensuring a tight, leak-free connection to the cylinder head. The polished silver ceramic coating not only adds a sleek appearance but also serves as a thermal barrier to reduce under-hood temperatures and protect the headers from corrosion and wear.
The tuned length design of the primary tubes is engineered to balance exhaust pulses, improving scavenging and reducing backpressure. This thoughtful engineering translates into more efficient engine breathing and measurable performance improvements.
Performance & Sound
Installing BBK shorty headers on your 3.5L V6 Dodge or Chrysler vehicle enhances exhaust flow, which can lead to noticeable increases in horsepower and torque. The improved scavenging effect helps the engine breathe more freely, contributing to better throttle response and overall power delivery. Additionally, these headers provide a more aggressive exhaust note, adding a sporty tone without excessive drone, enhancing the driving experience.
