Hey guys,

I just talked to a friend of mine who owns a shop and I asked him to install my BBK ceramic shorty headers. He asked me if I had flanges for my headers, I have never heard of these I thought the headers just bolt on up to the mid pipe. Do I need to buy a separate piece or am I fine it just confused me thanks for your help.
-Ben

flanges he means the piece that goes in between the headers and the block. looks kinda like gaskets. I'm sure they came with the headers.

I believe he is talking about the other end of the header. Some have connecting flanges and some do not.
