Specifically engineered to maximize the distinct low-to-mid range power delivery of the classic Holden 5.0L (304ci) V8 engine, this high-volume setup is precision-molded to fit the chassis lines, floor pan clearance, and independent rear suspension layout of the early VT Commodore platform. By integrating advanced multi-layered primary headers (Tri-Y design) with smooth, mandrel-bent heavy-duty 3-inch plumbing, it optimizes exhaust gas velocity and scavenging performance to completely remove power-robbing backpressure under heavy acceleration. As Australia’s premium exhaust innovator, Pacemaker pairs this aggressive high-flow geometry with patented V-Tex technology and signature double-skinned mufflers to deliver a raw, thumping muscle car sound outside while engineering out intrusive interior cabin boom or highway drone. \u003cem style=\"color: #222222 !important;\"\u003eNote: Fits Holden VT Series 1 models (1997–1999) equipped with the 5.0L Holden V8 engine configuration;
