Sprint Car Headers 1-5/8 - 1-3/4

The Sprint Car Headers 1-5/8 - 1-3/4 from SCHOENFELD are designed specifically for high-RPM sprint car engines, catering to competitors and builders who prioritize performance. These headers are engineered to maximize scavenging efficiency and ensure unrestricted exhaust flow in compact engine bays, making them ideal for lightweight, single-seat competition vehicles.

Constructed with a stepped primary tube diameter ranging from 1-5/8 inches to 1-3/4 inches, these headers optimize exhaust pulse velocity across the RPM range. This design minimizes backpressure and enhances the extraction of spent gases, which is critical for engines operating beyond 8,000 RPM. SCHOENFELD's focus on equal-length tube runs ensures uniform scavenging pulse timing, maximizing the dynamic ram effect during overlap periods.

These headers are particularly beneficial for sprint car racers looking to improve their vehicle's performance on the track. The compact dimensions of 20.6 x 10 x 37.75 inches allow for a perfect fit in tight chassis configurations without compromising collector design or pipe routing flexibility. With a weight of 34.8 lbs, they help maintain minimal drivetrain inertia, which is essential for optimal acceleration in single-speed transmission applications.
