 # BHS5196 Hooker BlackHeart LT Swap Exhaust Manifolds - Rear Dump SBC Exit - Natural Cast Multi-Fit - GM Gen V LT Engines - 2.50-in. Outlet. For applications or projects where our standard LT swap manifolds (BHS516 and BHS3116) don't quite fit and our "center dump" manifold (BHS5188) exits too far forward, our new rear dump and rear dump SBC exit cast iron swap manifolds have arrived. These differ in that they exit in a straight-down fashion much like a block hugger header but exit more toward the rear of the engine than our "center dump" manifolds. While almost the same as our BHS5192/93/94, the BHS5196 shares the same driver side manifold, but has the passenger side exit of traditional Small Block Chevrolet manifolds (see 8525HKR) to guarantee fitment and possibly bolt up your existing exhaust when doing an LS swap. Cast out of the same Hi-Silicon-Moly Ductile Iron as most of our other lines, it will be tough to find a more durable, streamlined, and quiet exhaust option. Available in natural cast, silver ceramic, or black ceramic finishes, for connecting to our lineup of adapter pipe kits or for ease in fabricating your own custom exhaust.. NOTE: Not compatible with 2004-2006 GTO starters/bellhousings. \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ Breaking in an engine with ceramic-coated versions of these manifolds will most likely result in damage to the coating and VOID all warranties providing coverage to it. HOOKER™ recommends using bare cast-iron manifolds or an old set of headers to break-in engines to avoid coating damage. \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ Ceramic-coated manifolds require several heat cycles to fully cure before they will withstand extreme heat, so care should be taken to provide a series of 4 to 5 intermittent heat cycles to "set" the coating prior to putting the vehicle into service. An incremental increase in run duration and throttle angle should be added to each successive cycle; initial and final run durations between approximately 1 and 7 minutes will be sufficient to set the coating. - Similar to SBC manifolds (8525HKR) but for Gen V LT engines - same exit centerline but raised up 1.36-inches (driver side) / tucked in tighter by 0.625-inches on (passenger side) - 2.5-inch outlet diameter offers improved flow for maximum performance from a cast iron exhaust manifold - Tight tuck design that provides an exit between our standard swap manifolds and center dump manifolds (with passenger side SBC exit) - Intended for GM LT engine swap applications where durability, quiet operation, and leak-free sealing is desired - Available in Natural as-cast finish for a factory appearance, silver ceramic, or black ceramic - Cast from Hi-Silicon-Moly Ductile Iron to provide durability and corrosion resistance - Perfect complement to Hooker engine swap mount plates and Holley engine swap oil pans General Policies **Payment Method** - We gladly accept PayPal and All Major Credit Cards.
