Description
Overview
The Flowmaster Scavenger Series Elite Header is a high-performance shorty header engineered to replace the restrictive factory exhaust manifolds on GEN 3 HEMI engines. Built from stainless steel and finished in a durable Silver Ceramic coating, these headers are designed to unlock the airflow your engine has been missing while delivering a clean, professional look under the hood. Every detail — from the laser-cut flanges to the factory-style collector connections — is aimed at a precise, direct-fit installation.
By clearing out the flow restrictions of the stock manifolds, the Scavenger Series Elite header helps your GEN 3 HEMI breathe more freely. Like all Flowmaster products, the payoff comes in the form of improved throttle response, added power, and better overall engine efficiency.
Engineering & Construction
These shorty headers feature 1-3/4 inch primary tubes in an unequal-length design, built with 16-gauge tube wall thickness for strength and long-term durability. The 3/8 inch thick, laser-cut flanges use an oval inlet port shape and a flanged attachment method for a secure, leak-free seal against the cylinder head. The 2.50-inch collector connects directly to the factory exhaust, and a flat band clamping type keeps everything tight and serviceable. The ceramic coating not only looks great but also protects the header against heat and corrosion over the long haul.
Key Highlights

Installation
Designed for an easy fit, the Scavenger Series Elite header comes complete with gaskets and the required bolts/studs, so you have the core hardware needed to get the job done. Note that reducers are not included. The direct-fit design and factory 2.50-inch collector connection make this a straightforward upgrade over the restrictive stock manifolds.
