BBK 1525 Titanium Ceramic Shorty Headers for 1994-1995 Ford Mustang GT/Cobra 5.0

Vehicle Fitment

• 1994-1995 Ford Mustang GT (SN95, 5.0L H.O. V8, Coupe & Convertible)
• 1994-1995 Ford Mustang GTS (SN95, 5.0L H.O. V8, Coupe)
• 1994-1995 Ford Mustang LX (SN95, 5.0L H.O. V8, Coupe & Convertible)
• 1994-1995 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra (SN95, 5.0L H.O. V8, Coupe & Convertible)

Fitment Notes

• Will NOT fit vehicles equipped with GT40P cylinder heads - verify cylinder head casting before ordering.
• The included EGR tube must be used for proper installation - do not omit this component during installation.
• Direct bolt-on design - fits both factory and aftermarket mid-pipes with no cutting, welding, or modifications required.
• CARB Certified (EO# D-245-8): 50-state legal for all 1994-1995 Ford Mustang 5.0L applications.
• Designed to fit the vehicle as delivered from the factory. If the vehicle uses aftermarket cylinder heads, motor mounts, chassis components, or custom-modified parts, it is the installer's responsibility to verify fitment before installation.
• Sold as a set (pair) - includes both left and right headers.
• Professional or intermediate-level mechanical skill is recommended for installation.

Features

• Unequal length shorty header design replaces the restrictive factory cast iron exhaust manifolds with wider 1-5/8" primary tubing for significantly improved exhaust scavenging, delivering dyno-verified gains of 8-15 rear wheel horsepower and torque over stock.
• 1-5/8" CNC mandrel-bent 16-gauge steel primary tubes maintain a consistent round cross-section through every bend, eliminating the flow restriction caused by the factory's cast iron passages and improving exhaust gas velocity across the RPM range.
• 3/8" one-piece laser-cut header flanges provide superior rigidity over stamped multi-piece flanges - resists warping through heat cycles and ensures a guaranteed leak-free cylinder head seal.
• 2.5" collector with ball and socket flange design ensures a leak-free mid-pipe connection and smooth flow transition from the primaries to the rest of the exhaust system.
• Titanium ceramic finish provides heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and long-term appearance retention - reduces radiated engine bay temperatures compared to bare or chrome steel headers.
• All headers are robotically and precision hand-welded, then pressure-tested at the factory before shipment to confirm a leak-free, structurally sound unit out of the box.
• CAD-designed and dyno-developed at BBK's own facility - not generically ported or sourced from a shared platform design - for verified maximum performance gains on the 5.0L application.
• Oxygen sensor port included - maintains compatibility with the factory O2 sensors and downstream emissions monitoring equipment.
• Compatible with factory or any aftermarket mid-pipe, providing flexibility for future exhaust system upgrades.
• Made in the USA - BBK has manufactured performance headers and bolt-on performance parts domestically since 1988.

Product Description

The BBK Performance 1525 Titanium Ceramic Shorty Headers are a direct bolt-on performance upgrade engineered specifically for the 1994-1995 Ford Mustang SN95 equipped with the 5.0L H.O. V8 - fitting the GT, LX, GTS, and SVT Cobra in both Coupe and Convertible body styles. Developed in-house at BBK's CAD design and dynamometer facility, these unequal length shorty headers replace the factory's highly restrictive cast iron exhaust manifolds with 1-5/8" CNC mandrel-bent 16-gauge steel primaries that dramatically improve exhaust flow, scavenging efficiency, and pulse timing - producing dyno-verified gains of 8-15 rear wheel horsepower and torque over stock. The 2.5" collector with a ball and socket flange transitions cleanly to both factory and aftermarket mid-pipes, giving owners full flexibility in how they complete the exhaust system.

BBK's construction standard sets this header apart from generic alternatives: 3/8" one-piece laser-cut die-stamped flanges resist warping through repeated heat cycles and guarantee a leak-free seal at the cylinder head, while every header is robotically and precision hand-welded before undergoing a full pressure test at the factory. The titanium ceramic coating reduces radiated heat into the engine bay, protects against corrosion, and maintains its appearance far longer than chrome plating under sustained high-heat use. An O2 sensor port ensures compatibility with the factory oxygen sensors, and the included EGR tube is required for proper installation and must not be omitted during the installation process.

Important: these headers will not fit engines equipped with GT40P cylinder heads - confirm your cylinder head casting before ordering. The system is CARB certified under EO# D-245-8, making it fully 50-state legal for all 1994-1995 Ford Mustang 5.0L applications. Installation requires intermediate-to-professional mechanical skill given the tight SN95 engine bay. All required hardware, gaskets, and the EGR tube are included. Backed by BBK's 1-year manufacturer's warranty and made in the USA, the 1525 is one of the most popular and proven first-step performance modifications available for the SN95 5.0L platform.
