Why Good Headers & Exhaust Systems Matter

• At 5000rpm, a 351 Cleveland moves approximately 12,200L/min intake airflow and expels around 36,600L/min exhaust gas
• At 6500rpm (600hp), airflow increases to approximately 22,000L/min intake and 66,000L/min exhaust output
• Efficient headers improve scavenging, reduce restriction and support maximum horsepower and torque output

Warranty & Compliance

• Backed by Pacemaker 2-year manufacturer warranty
