Product Description

The BBK 1612 Tuned Shorty Headers are a performance-oriented exhaust upgrade designed specifically for 2005-2010 Ford Mustang GT models equipped with the 4.6L V8 engine. These direct-fit headers replace the restrictive factory exhaust manifolds with larger 1-5/8" mandrel-bent equal length primary tubes that improve exhaust flow, enhance scavenging, and contribute to increased horsepower and torque throughout the powerband. The tuned shorty design delivers a strong balance of performance gains while maintaining ease of installation.

Constructed with durable steel and thick precision flanges, the BBK 1612 headers offer improved strength, leak-free sealing, and long-term reliability. The high-temperature finish helps resist corrosion and manage under-hood heat. Retaining factory oxygen sensor port locations ensures compatibility with stock or aftermarket mid-pipes. Complete with new gaskets and full mounting hardware, these headers provide a straightforward bolt-on installation and a noticeable improvement in exhaust performance and sound for Mustang GT owners seeking enhanced engine breathing and a more aggressive exhaust note.
