The MPI Automotive FX-294 is a tubular extractor listed to fit the Holden Torana LH and LX with the 253 or 308 V8, and the Holden HK, HT and HG. Transmission fitment is confirmed by the supplier's notes.

What does this extractor cover?

This is the header section for the early Holden V8 — the 253 and 308 in the Torana LH-LX and the HK-HT-HG range. It replaces the cast factory manifolds with tubular headers on each bank. The listing flags that transmission fitment depends on the supplier's notes, so the gearbox in your car is part of getting the right setup rather than an afterthought. It's the extractor only, not a full system.

What is an extractor and what does it change?

An extractor (header) is the first component off the exhaust ports. The factory cast manifold merges the runners early to stay compact; a tubular extractor gives each cylinder its own primary before they collect, which is where the flow gain over the cast unit sits on a V8 like the 253 or 308. The trade-off is that tubular steel is more exposed in the bay, and on cars of this era the gearbox crossmember and tunnel can affect clearance — which is why transmission detail matters here.

Will it suit my Torana or HK-HT-HG?

It's listed to fit the Holden Torana LH and LX with the 253 or 308 V8, plus the HK, HT and HG. Because transmission fitment is called out in the supplier's notes, tell us your gearbox along with the body — we'll confirm the FX-294 suits the exact build before ordering. Years aren't published beyond the model codes, and we treat the listing as 'listed to fit', not a guarantee.
