Shop KOOKS Headers by Corvette Generation

• C5 Corvette (1997–2004): KOOKS long-tube header systems are available for supported LS1 5.7L and LS6 5.7L models. Match the system to the correct year, engine, and exhaust configuration before ordering.
• C6 Corvette (2005–2013): KOOKS offers generation- and trim-specific header systems for LS2 6.0L, LS3 6.2L, LS7 7.0L, and supercharged LS9 6.2L Corvettes, including separate fitment paths for Base, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1 models.
• C7 Corvette (2014–2019): KOOKS header systems are available for LT1 6.2L, supercharged LT4 6.2L, and supercharged LT5 6.2L models. Confirm Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06, or ZR1 fitment before choosing the correct system.
• C8 Corvette (2020–Present): C8 fitment is separated between LT2-powered Stingray and E-Ray models and the LT6-powered Z06. The mid-engine layout requires a system designed specifically for the correct C8 model and engine.

Why Corvette Owners Choose KOOKS

• Premium stainless steel construction: KOOKS header systems are built for durability, consistent fit, and long-term performance use.
• Corvette-specific fitment: Each system is designed around the correct generation, engine, trim, and exhaust layout.
• Improved exhaust flow: Long-tube header designs help reduce exhaust restriction and support performance-focused Corvette builds.
• Complete package options: Available configurations may include the headers, connection pipes, catalytic converter options, and installation components required for the intended setup.

What to Consider Before Ordering

• Confirm generation, trim, and engine: C5, C6, C7, and C8 header systems do not interchange, and Z06 and ZR1 models often require different fitment than standard models.
• Choose the correct package: Review whether the system includes connection pipes, catalytic converters, gaskets, hardware, or other required components.
• Check exhaust compatibility: Confirm how the header system connects to the factory exhaust or the aftermarket system already installed on the Corvette.
• Review emissions requirements: Catalytic converter options and street-use restrictions can vary by system and location.
• Plan for professional installation: Header installation is more involved than a typical bolt-on exhaust upgrade and may require specialized tools and experience.
