ARC Performance Black Small Block Chev Block Hugger Exhaust Headers.
These small block Chevy tight-fit headers are the most universal steel tube shorty headers available. They even fit difficult applications where space is limited.
Block hugger headers are a favorite for street rods, as well as many 1950s and 1960s cars and vintage trucks.
