Headers SBC Stock Clip 1-5/8in To 1-3/4in Coll.

The Schoenfeld Headers SBC Stock Clip 1-5/8in To 1-3/4in Collector is a purpose-built exhaust manifold solution engineered for small block Chevy engines seeking improved scavenging and reliability over factory cast-iron designs. These headers are purpose-built for street and strip applications where bolt-on performance gains matter without requiring extensive engine bay modifications. Delivered as a complete pair with gaskets and hardware included, this header set eliminates the guesswork and delays of sourcing fasteners separately.

Constructed from heavy-gauge steel with a durable black paint finish, the Schoenfeld Headers SBC Stock Clip features stepped primary tubes that transition from 1-5/8 inches to 1-3/4 inches, optimizing exhaust velocity across the RPM band for both street cruising and weekend racing. The stepped-tube design matches the natural gas expansion curve, reducing backpressure while maintaining scavenging efficiency at part throttle. A 3-inch collector gathers all four cylinders into a single outlet, providing a clean integration point for your exhaust system whether you're running a single pipe or dual setups. The stock clip retention system uses factory-compatible mounting points, preserving the original appearance of your engine bay while delivering measurable flow improvements over restrictive manifolds.

This header design is ideal for small block Chevy owners running 350, 327, or 305 engines in street cars, restorations, and bracket racing applications where headers must coexist with tight engine compartments. Installation is straightforward for mechanically inclined enthusiasts; the stock clip design uses existing bolt holes, eliminating the need for custom fabrication or modifications to engine bay structures. Pair these headers with a quality exhaust system and tuning adjustments to realize gains in both horsepower and throttle response while maintaining OEM compatibility and streetability.
