Heavy-Duty Exhaust Header Upgrade by BBK

If you want to add more power, better throttle response, and a deeper exhaust note to your 1999-2003 F-150 5.4L, the BBK 1-5/8" Titanium Shorty Headers are a great way to make it happen. Your truck's factory exhaust manifolds are restrictive, limiting airflow and holding back performance. These BBK shorty headers are designed to increase exhaust flow, helping your engine breathe more efficiently. The result is a 10-17 horsepower gain, improved torque, and a more aggressive sound that makes your V8-powered F-150 feel more alive. The key to this performance boost is the 1-5/8" CNC mandrel-bent primary tubes. These tubes allow for smoother, less restrictive airflow, reducing backpressure and increasing efficiency. With better exhaust scavenging, your engine can pull in more fresh air, leading to stronger acceleration and better fuel combustion. Whether you're merging onto the highway, towing a load, or just enjoying your truck’s performance, you'll notice the difference in how it responds.

Durable Steel Construction with Titanium Ceramic Finish

BBK didn’t just design these headers for performance–they built them to last. The 16-gauge steel construction provides strength and durability, while the 3/8" thick laser-cut flanges ensure a tight, leak-free seal. To keep heat in the exhaust system and out of your engine bay, these headers are finished with a titanium ceramic coating. This coating not only reduces under-hood temperatures, which helps improve efficiency, but also protects against rust and corrosion, making these headers a long-lasting upgrade. Best of all, installation is straightforward and designed to be a direct bolt-on replacement for the stock manifolds. These headers work with both factory and aftermarket mid-pipes, making them a great option whether you’re keeping your exhaust mostly stock or going for a full performance setup. BBK includes new gaskets and all necessary hardware, so you won’t have to worry about tracking down extra parts. With basic tools and mechanical knowledge, most installs can be completed in a few hours.
