XS-POWER Stainless Steel LS Engine Swap Headers
Build your next LS-powered performance project with the XS-POWER stainless steel LS engine swap header set. Designed for compatible Chevrolet LS-family V8 engines, these performance headers are intended for custom engine conversions requiring a practical exhaust routing solution.

These headers are particularly useful to evaluate in LS engine swap projects involving a center crossmember positioned beneath the engine, where header routing and available chassis space can be important.
Popular project platforms include Jeep CJ7 LSX conversions, classic Chevrolet Camaro LS swaps, early Chevy Nova V8 conversions, and other compatible custom LS-powered vehicles.
LS Swap Header Specifications
Premium LS Swap Exhaust Header Features
Stainless Steel Performance Construction
Manufactured using stainless steel tubing for improved corrosion resistance compared with ordinary uncoated mild steel components. Ideal for performance-oriented custom exhaust fabrication projects.
1-5/8 Inch Primary Tubes
The 1-5/8 inch primary tube configuration provides a performance-focused exhaust routing solution for compatible LS-family V8 applications.
2-1/2 Inch Collectors
The 2-1/2 inch collector size supports integration with a properly configured downstream exhaust system. Confirm collector connections and available clearance before installation.
Heavy-Duty 3/8 Inch Header Flanges
The header flange thickness is specified at 3/8 inch, providing a substantial mounting interface for compatible LS cylinder-head exhaust ports.
Professionally TIG-Welded Joints
TIG-welded fabrication provides precise joining of the header tubing and associated components.
Center Crossmember-Friendly Design
The supplied product design is described as working well with vehicles featuring a center crossmember beneath the engine. This makes the header configuration worth considering for custom engine swaps with limited exhaust routing space.
Complete Header Pair
Supplied as a matched left-side and right-side header set, with header gaskets and the installation hardware shown in the product photographs.

Jeep CJ7, Camaro and Nova LS Swap Applications
Jeep CJ7 LSX Engine Swap
Designed for consideration in Jeep CJ7 LS-powered custom builds using compatible 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L, and 6.0L V8 engines. Confirm frame, steering shaft, engine mount, and collector clearance.
1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro LS Swap
Can be used as a candidate header configuration for 1967, 1968, and 1969 Camaro LS engine conversions. Vehicles equipped with factory air conditioning or power steering may require minor modifications.
1962-1967 Chevrolet Nova LS Conversion
Early Chevrolet Nova LS swap projects may require adjustments to the mid-length header installation. Particular attention should be given to stock steering systems, rack-and-pinion conversions, and aftermarket bolt-on front clips.
This is an aftermarket engine swap header set. Direct bolt-on fitment is not guaranteed for every chassis, engine mount, steering configuration, or transmission combination. Custom fabrication may be required.
