Sanderson Headers CC2 Small Block Chevy

CC2 Header Set, Small Block Chevy

The Sanderson CC2 header set fits most 1932–48 cars and trucks using Small Block Chevy 265–400 engines. At only 4″ tall, this is one of the most compact performance headers available, ideal for tight engine compartments where other headers simply won’t fit.

The CC2 is compatible with all GM straight and angle plug heads, including AFR, Dart, Trick Flow, Brodix, Brownfield, and Edelbrock. Both driver and passenger side headers are identical. Also available with 1-5/8″ primary tubes (part #CC2-158).

FINISH:

Our Ceramic Coating is recommended for every vehicle application and is the default finish selection choice above. We apply a multi-layer inside-and-out aluminized ceramic coating in-house and polish it to a high luster. This aerospace and military-grade technology provides excellent heat protection, enhances cylinder scavenging, and increases the durability of your headers.

What is a D-Port?

We often see confusion in what is considered a D-Port cylinder head for small block Chevrolet engine applications. The problem originates in the technical understanding of what constitutes a true D-PORT versus a D-shape. The D-Port roof extends well above the centerline of the exhaust port, whereas the D-shaped port fits nicely inside what is deemed a standard port dimension. As shown in the graphic below, the d-shape easily fits within the common round or square port flange opening.

Where other header manufacturers use a typical flat header flange and gasket for sealing, the patented raised flange design of the Sanderson Headers requires different flanges for different small block Chevy exhaust port shapes. Other header flanges will often block the top of the exhaust port on D-port heads. When using a Sanderson D-Port flange the port is not blocked. However, using the wrong flange with a Sanderson header may expose open areas that will not seal, creating an exhaust leak.

Examples:

1. Using a D-port flange on a common GM head (standard round, square, or D-shaped port), the header port flange open is larger (taller opening) than the sealing area around the exhaust port (additional details below, comparing two BRODIX Track 1® cylinder heads)
2. Using a standard Sanderson header flange on a D-port cylinder head has a similar problem, where the cylinder head exhaust port opening may extend above the raised flange sealing area, again creating the possibility of an exhaust leak.

Here is an example of a small block Chevrolet D-port cylinder head that requires the Sanderson D-Port header flange.
