Stainless Steel Exhaust Header 5.2L/5.9L Magnum V8

This Flashark exhaust header is engineered to enhance the exhaust flow for compatible Dodge Ram, Dakota, and Durango vehicles featuring the 5.2L or 5.9L Magnum V8 engine. It serves as a direct replacement for aging, restrictive, or leaking factory cast manifolds, offering a foundation for basic performance upgrades and a deeper V8 exhaust tone. The header is constructed from durable stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish for improved aesthetics and resistance to heat and corrosion. Key specifications include 1.5-inch primary tubes and a 2-inch outlet, sized for street-driven applications. The product is ISO9001:2000 certified and includes necessary gaskets, bolts, and hardware for installation as shown in product photos. Crucially, this header is designed exclusively for 2WD (two-wheel drive) models. It will not fit 4WD Dodge Ram, Dakota, or Durango vehicles. Compatibility is limited to specific Magnum V8 engines (5.2L and 5.9L) and excludes 3.9L V6, 4.7L V8, and 5.7L HEMI applications. Buyers must verify their vehicle's drivetrain and engine before purchase. It is also important to compare the product photos and outlet position with your current Y-pipe or mid-pipe configuration, as modifications may be necessary depending on your existing exhaust system. Local emissions laws vary, and this product is not advertised as CARB-approved or 50-state legal. While a tune is not always mandatory, it may help optimize performance and drivability after installation. The expected horsepower gains typically range from 8-20 HP on a healthy engine, with improvements often felt more in throttle response and mid-range pull. Installation is best suited for experienced DIYers with appropriate tools, as older trucks can present challenges with rusted components and tight clearances. A 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects is included.
