The Pacemaker PH5020_L_R is a set of competition extractors (headers) listed to fit the Holden VB to VK Commodore with the 253 or 308 V8. Pipe diameter and material aren't published in this listing.

What does this header set cover?

This is a left-and-right extractor (header) pair that replaces the factory cast exhaust manifolds with tuned primary tubes. On the PH5020_L_R those tubes collect each cylinder's exhaust pulse and merge them at the collector at the front of the exhaust. It's listed as a competition set for the early Commodore V8, covering the manifold section rather than the rear pipework. The pipe diameter and material aren't published by the supplier for this listing.

What do competition extractors change?

Extractors are an engine-back change. The trade-off is character and effort: a tuned set can free up exhaust flow off each cylinder compared with a restrictive cast manifold, but the tubes sit close to the engine and are more involved to fit than a bolt-on muffler, and the note can shift louder than stock. A set described as competition is built for the 253 and 308 V8 in the VB-to-VK Commodore specifically, so it's listed against the vehicle and engine rather than the badge alone.

Will it suit my Holden Commodore?

It's listed to fit the Holden VB to VK Commodore with the 253 or 308 V8. Feed data can be imperfect, so confirm your series and engine with the workshop before ordering — the VB-to-VK span ran detail changes that affect which header set is correct for your car.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits extractor sets like the PH5020_L_R in-house across the Illawarra. Headers sit tight to the engine, steering and chassis, so we check clearances, gaskets and sensor bungs before the hoist. It's listed at $1,064 RRP and is typically a special-order item, so send your registration or build details and we'll confirm the part and lead time. On emissions: headers change the manifold section, so road compliance depends on your state's requirements — confirm what's needed for NSW registration with us before fitting.
