Pretty sure that they have the same dimensions as the 1 3/4 headers. Same size tube and collector just the pipes are hollowed out more

Anyone else running the 1 7/8 Kooks? I'm wondering if the fitment is the same as the 1 3/4 headers.

well according to all the engine masters guys they use the hell out of coatings. it makes sence that it would make a diffrence since cermaic will cool faster than just plain metal. as long as you have a good coat i think you'll be straight
