What header companies does BluePrint Engines recommend for use with our aluminum cylinder heads?

Finding headers that fit properly with aftermarket aluminum cylinder heads can be challenging. BluePrint Engines cylinder heads are designed for improved performance and efficiency and are not direct replicas of OEM cast iron heads. As a result, some headers designed around stock cylinder heads may experience fitment issues.While many off-the-shelf headers may work, Blueprint Engines cannot guarantee fitment across every header manufacturer and vehicle combination. To help customers find the correct solution, Blueprint Engines has partnered with header manufacturers that have been provided Blueprint cylinder head castings and can assist with application-specific fitment.

 Important Recommendation

 BluePrint Engines Recommendation

For the best chance of proper header fitment, BluePrint Engines recommends working directly with Ultimate Headers, Sanderson Headers, or Lemons Race Headers, as these companies have BluePrint cylinder head castings available and can assist in confirming fitment for your specific engine and vehicle combination. Always contact the manufacturer before ordering headers

Before ordering headers, contact the manufacturer directly and let them know you are using a BluePrint Engine. Do not assume every header part number offered by these companies will fit your application.
