When BBK began operations in 1988 - the electronic fuel injection (EFI) market was just beginning and the industry was filled with companies that had decades of experience with carbureted vehicles. While many of these companies now offer some EFI products in addition to their main product lines - the team at BBK has lived and breathed EFI performance each and every day. This commitment to EFI-only performance has resulted in many industry firsts such as their world-famous line of performance throttle bodies and their all-new "DSI-series" dual runner length intake manifolds.
Today the BBK facilities encompass over 70,000 ft of state of the art design and manufacturing facilities with another 40,000 ft of additional space currently under construction.

This high tech equipment along with a staff of skilled programmers and technicians means you will get the OEM quality BBK is known for with all BBK, GRIPP and Speedware products.
Whether it's the mirror finish of a CNC machined throttle body casting, the precise fit of a fuel regulator body or the unmistakable quality of their lightweight aluminum underdrive pulleys. BBK quality can be found in each and every product they offer.
All BBK CNC-series and eXtractor Series performance exhaust products are built with an array of high-quality components that have made them the industry leader for seventeen years.

Q: How do you install a header?
A: A header is a direct bolt-on. Simply remove the factory OEM exhaust manifold and the aftermarket header is put in its place. The header is to be attached the head of your vehicle. Remove all the bolts that hold the flanges in place and detach the factory manifold. The down pipe or exhaust pipe should be removed as well and then reattached once the header flanges are bolted back onto the head.
Q: What are the different tubing options for headers and what is the difference between them?
A: There are two major designs for headers: the 4-2-1 design and the 4-1 design. In many cases 4-1 headers are designed for racing applications where the vehicle is being driven at or near redline. The 4-1 design maximizes top end power, whereas the 4-2-1 evenly distributes it throughout the power band. Either way, you're going to be getting more horsepower from a header.
Q: How much does the material used to make the header matter?
A: There are two main materials that headers are manufactured out of: ceramic and stainless steel. Ceramic headers are less expensive, but are prone to cracking if they get to be extremely hot. Stainless steel headers are more expensive but are more durable and generally more stylish. Stainless steel headers can take any kind of heat you throw at it and not prone to cracking.
Q: What does a header do? Why buy a header?
A: An exhaust header is a performance product that replaces your factory exhaust manifold and improves an engine's performance by allowing air to flow more freely. The easier an engine breathes the more power it produces. Headers generally use piping with a wider diameter than factory tubing, which allows more air to pass through the exhaust system than factory. A header is one of the easiest bolt-on modifications you can make to increase horsepower, making an effective use of money if your goal is to quickly gain horsepower.
Q: For which vehicles is it necessary to buy a pair of headers? On your website are headers automatically sold in pairs for these vehicles?
A: When purchasing exhaust headers for a V-6 or V-8 engine, the header package is complete with two headers. If your vehicle is a 4-cylinder, there only a single header that is used.
