Headers for your modified 302
Get the exhaust right for the heads you have chosen. Kooks 10152400 is made for an 8.2-inch-deck 302 conversion with the specified 3-inch inline head pattern, using 1-7/8-inch primaries and 3-inch collectors.
SKU: 10152400
Choose by your actual cylinder heads
The application includes Dart / World 210 / 225 and AFR 205 / 220 / 225 heads. The 16-gauge 304 stainless headers include gaskets and bolts. Matching the head pattern makes this a far more useful choice than selecting on engine capacity alone. The flanges are 3/8-inch thick, giving your installer the specified head mounting interface.
The chassis parts to plan for
Use a UPR or BMR Standard tubular K-member, Powermaster 9503 starter and Flaming River steering shaft. A Stifflers transmission crossmember is recommended. Lowering and engine position affect clearance beneath the car; mount shims may be required.
Tuning for your exhaust upgrade
We recommend tuning with every header installation so the calibration suits your headers, complete exhaust and fuel. Talk to us to discuss tuning for your vehicle and the parts you are fitting.
