LS Swap Stainless Steel Shorty Headers

LS swap stainless steel shorty headers built for cleaner exhaust flow and a tighter engine bay fit.

These shorty headers are designed for LS swap projects where space is tight and clearance matters. The stainless steel construction handles repeated heat cycling, and the compact runner design keeps the headers close to the block so you can route piping without major chassis modifications.

Why these LS swap headers work

• Stainless steel build: Resists rust, scaling, and warping under repeated heat cycles common to LS engines.
• Shorty geometry: Compact runner length keeps clearance for steering shafts, frame rails, and turbo plumbing on swap builds.
• Improved exhaust flow: Smoother bends reduce backpressure compared to stock cast manifolds, helping the engine breathe.
• Bolt-on style design: Mates to common LS block bolt patterns, making it a straightforward upgrade for swap projects.
• Heat-resilient finish: Stainless construction handles long highway pulls and stop-and-go heat soaking.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between shorty headers and long-tube headers?
Shorty headers have shorter primary tubes that exit near the block, which makes them easier to fit on LS swaps with limited room. Long-tube headers extend further down the chassis and can produce more low-end torque but often require more clearance work.

Are stainless steel headers better than mild steel?
Stainless steel resists corrosion and heat scaling better than coated mild steel, so it tends to last longer in daily-driven and high-heat applications.

Will these headers fit any LS swap?
They are designed around common LS bolt patterns, but chassis clearance varies by vehicle. Verify steering shaft, frame rail, and oil pan clearance against your specific build before installing.

Do shorty headers need a tune?
A retune is recommended after any exhaust change on a tuned LS to keep air-fuel ratios in check, especially if combined with a new cat-back or off-road pipe.
