The MPI Automotive FX-270 is a tubular extractor listed to fit the Holden Commodore VB and VC with the red six-cylinder motor. It replaces the cast factory manifold with a tubular header.

What does this extractor cover?

This is the header section for the red six-cylinder motor in the early Commodore VB and VC. The 'red' note ties it to that engine family rather than the later blue or black motor. It covers the manifold replacement; it's the extractor only, not a full system. As a straight-six, it lays out a single bank of runners feeding one collector.

What is an extractor and what does it change?

An extractor (header) is the first part off the exhaust ports. The factory cast manifold keeps the runners short and merged to stay compact; a tubular extractor gives each cylinder its own primary before they collect, which is the gain over the cast unit on a straight-six like the red motor. The trade-off is that tubular steel sits more exposed in the engine bay than cast iron, so fit and clearance are confirmed at fitting rather than assumed.

Will it suit my VB-VC Commodore?

It's listed to fit the Holden Commodore VB and VC with the red six-cylinder. The exact displacement isn't published by the supplier, so send us your build and we'll confirm the FX-270 matches your engine before ordering. We treat the listing as 'listed to fit', not a guarantee, since feed data can be imperfect.

We get the car up, fit the header, check clearance against the steering and chassis, and pipe it into your existing system. The RRP is listed at $591.65, and we confirm the build with you first.
