Gibson 96-02 Dodge Ram 2500 Base 8.0L 1.5in 16 Gauge Performance Header - Stainless

If you're looking to get more out of your 1996-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 with the 8.0L engine, these Gibson performance headers are a solid option. They're designed to replace your factory exhaust manifolds, helping your engine breathe more freely. This improved airflow can lead to noticeable gains in usable horsepower and torque, especially at the low and mid-range RPMs you use most when cruising on the highway. Plus, a better-breathing engine often runs a bit cooler.

Gibson builds these headers from heavy-duty 16-gauge 409L stainless steel tubing, which is known for its resistance to corrosion. The port flanges are a beefy 3/8 inch thick and laser-cut, which helps prevent warping and ensures a solid seal to avoid leaks. They use OEM-style connections, meaning they're made to bolt up directly to your stock crossover pipe, and no welding is required for installation. This makes them a straightforward replacement for your factory manifolds, suitable for both lowered and raised trucks, whether you're driving on the street or off-road. They meet EPA and CARB requirements, so they're street legal in all 50 states.

Installation is made easier because Gibson includes premium gaskets and all the necessary hardware to get the job done. These headers are backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty from Gibson, giving you peace of mind with your purchase.
