Advance Headers High-Performance Mild Steel Exhaust Extractors for Ford Falcon AU, XR8 & Fairlane 5.0L EFI Windsor V8 Engines
The Advance Headers Performance Exhaust Extractors (A62) are heavy-duty tubular manifolds engineered explicitly for the fuel-injected AU generation of the Australian Ford Falcon and Fairlane platforms. Tailored precisely to fit the late-model small-block Ford 5.0-Litre (302ci) Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Windsor V8 engine housed within the AU Falcon series (including early XR8 models) alongside the NU Fairlane flagships, this premium upgrade replaces the highly restrictive factory cast iron manifolds. By maximizing exhaust gas scavenging velocity and significantly lowering backpressure, it unlocks noticeable low-to-mid range torque, crisper throttle response, and that signature Windsor performance growl.
PRODUCT CONTENTS:
- 1 x Heavy-Duty Mild Steel Left-Hand 5.0L EFI Windsor Extractor Header Assembly
- 1 x Heavy-Duty Mild Steel Right-Hand 5.0L EFI Windsor Extractor Header Assembly
Key Features:
- Engineered specifically to seamlessly integrate with AU-generation factory Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) intake plumbing, steering rack positions, and engine bay accessories
- Advanced clearance profiling accommodates performance GT40 and GT40P cylinder head configurations smoothly when utilized with right-angled spark plug boot leads
- Tuned mandrel-bent primary piping pathways ensure completely uniform internal flow geometry, optimizing gas velocity and eliminating heavy factory casting restrictions
- Heavy-duty mild steel construction structurally built to handle intense engine bay thermal expansion cycles and high-vibration V8 street applications safely
- Thick, precision laser-cut cylinder head flanges maintain a flat, ultra-stable mating footprint to permanently guard against face distortion, thermal warping, and high-pressure exhaust leaks

⚠️ Crucial Cylinder Head Variant & Plug Lead Alignment Warnings:
1. GT40 / GT40P Spark Plug Clearance: While this product (Part No. A62) is engineered to clear standard factory Windsor head castings, it is space-mapped to allow fitment onto higher-flowing GT40 or GT40P cylinder heads (native to factory AU XR8 and Explorer platforms). However, due to the tight spark plug exit angles on these performance castings, you must utilize right-angled (90-degree) spark plug boot leads to prevent the primary tubes from scorching or melting the insulation wires.
2. Generation Layout Constraints: Mapped explicitly around the steering gear layout, crossmembers, and automatic/manual underbody transmission bells unique to the AU generation chassis runs. Will not align with earlier E-series platforms cleanly without secondary modifications.
Please Note: Professional installation by an exhaust specialist or qualified late-model muscle car technician is highly recommended to guarantee proper system alignment, spark plug boot clearance checkouts, and a perfect leak-free seal.
