Default Kooks Revised F-body Header

We here at Kooks Custom Headers have strived for 45 years to bring the general public and the racing community the highest quality Header and exhaust systems in the world. We would like to introduce the newest version of the F-Body header. The Changes that you will see are our Stamped merge collectors on all F-Body headers now comes standard at no additional cost to the consumer. We have also incorporated an extra 02 bung in the driver side collector for A/F ratio or wide band for dyno tuning purposes. We will also include a stainless steel plug for the extra bung if it is not going to be put to use. All this is in addition to our normal Kooks craftsmanship like 304S/S construction throughout including the y pipe; all hardware is included from the clamps to the gaskets to the new bolt kit. Produced here in our 24,000 square foot facility located right here in Long Island, NY all this with not a single increase in cost to the consumer.

I'll bet a lot of Fbody owners are grinning from ear to ear. Nice move with the extra hole and bolt for when its not in use.

hahaha I was thinking the same thing! my brand new 1-7/8ths didn't come with that.

on a serious note wouldn't it be better for the wide band to be in a position where it can get a reading from both cylinders not just one?

Sweet.

Can you provide 4-5 pics of the inside of the collector? I'm mostly focused on where the primaries adjoin together and the way they are adjoined before I spend any money.
