Full Length Exhaust Headers by BBK Performance

If you're looking to maximize power and performance from your 1997-2003 F-150 4.6L or 5.4L, upgrading to BBK 1-5/8" Titanium Full-Length Headers is one of the best modifications you can make. Unlike restrictive stock exhaust manifolds, these full-length headers allow exhaust gases to flow much more efficiently, freeing up horsepower and torque. The result is a noticeable increase in power, a stronger throttle response, and a deep, aggressive exhaust tone that makes your truck sound as tough as it performs. One of the biggest advantages of full-length headers over shorty headers is how they impact exhaust scavenging. Because full-length headers extend further down the exhaust system, they create a stronger vacuum effect, pulling exhaust gases out of the cylinders more effectively. This helps your engine bring in more fresh air for combustion, leading to better top-end horsepower gains. Shorty headers are great for low-end torque and easy installation, but if you're looking for the most performance possible, full-length headers are the way to go.

Premium Titanium Ceramic Finish

The titanium ceramic finish isn’t just for looks–it serves a real purpose. This advanced coating helps retain heat inside the exhaust, improving exhaust velocity and keeping under-hood temperatures lower. Compared to polished silver ceramic headers, which offer a sleek appearance, the titanium finish provides even greater heat resistance while still offering a clean, high-performance look. Whether you're racing, towing, or just want better all-around performance, this finish helps ensure consistent power delivery and durability over time.

High-Quality Construction & Easy Installation

BBK didn’t just design these headers for performance–they built them to last a lifetime. They are constructed from 16-gauge CNC mandrel-bent steel tubing, ensuring maximum strength and durability while maintaining smooth airflow. The 3/8" thick laser-cut flanges provide a leak-free seal, preventing warping or exhaust leaks over time. Every set is pressure tested at the factory, guaranteeing proper fitment and long-term reliability. Additionally installation is straightforward but does require a matching BBK high-flow catted mid-pipe to complete the setup. These headers are designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade, and BBK includes new gaskets and all necessary hardware to make installation as smooth as possible. These headers work with both 2WD and 4WD models, and no O2 sensor extensions are needed, making the install more convenient.
