FlowTech Exhaust Tri-Y Headers - Ford Small-Block V8

FlowTech Exhaust Tri-Y Headers represent a race-proven performance upgrade for classic Ford small-block V8 applications, replacing restrictive factory cast iron exhaust manifolds with a purpose-engineered header design. Rooted in a racing heritage that traces directly back to the iconic Shelby GT350, these headers have earned a lasting reputation among Ford enthusiasts seeking real-world power gains at an accessible price point — a philosophy FlowTech has maintained since the brand's founding in 1994.

Tri-Y Collector Design

• Two-stage Tri-Y tube pairing optimizes exhaust scavenging across a broad RPM range for a wider, more usable powerband
• Delivers stronger mid-range torque compared to traditional 4-into-1 designs — ideal for street driving and mixed-use performance builds
• Reduces exhaust backpressure to improve engine breathing efficiency and sharpen throttle response
• A time-proven performance architecture with decades of proven use on the street and at the track

Quality Construction

• Mandrel-bent tubes maintain a consistent diameter throughout each runner, preserving maximum exhaust flow velocity and enhancing the cylinder scavenging effect
• Heavy-duty 16-gauge steel tubing provides increased strength and durability under high-performance demands
• Heavy-duty header flanges resist warping and ensure a leak-free seal at the cylinder head
• Slotted port flanges provide additional clearance during installation, simplifying the bolt-on process
• Dimpled tubes at the port provide additional bolt clearance; flanges are parallel-ground for a tight, reliable seal

Purpose-Built for Ford Small-Block V8 Platforms

• Engineered specifically for Ford 260, 289, and 302 cubic inch small-block V8 engines found across a wide range of classic Ford and Mercury vehicles
• Direct bolt-on fitment on compatible platforms — no cutting or major modification required
• Compatible with stock and most aftermarket exhaust systems for straightforward integration at any build level
• An ideal performance foundation for restorations, restomod projects, or dedicated street performance machines
