The Pacemaker PH5340 is a 2in tri-Y header set listed for a Chevrolet 396/454 big-block V8 conversion to suit the Holden HQ-WB. It's a left-and-right pair built around an engine-swap fitment rather than a factory application.

What does this header set cover?

PH5340 is the L/R tri-Y header pair for fitting a Chevrolet 396/454 big-block V8 into the Holden HQ-WB body. The 2in figure is the primary tube size off each cylinder. Because it's a conversion part, its job is to clear the big-block in a chassis that wasn't built for it — it's the manifold section for that swap, not a full exhaust system. Both the donor engine family (Chevrolet big-block) and the host body (Holden HQ-WB) are named in the listing.

What is a tri-Y header and what does it change?

A tri-Y header pairs cylinders into Y-junctions before a final collector, rather than running every primary into one common collector. It's a header design choice, here in a 2in primary size. As a conversion header its first task is fitment — getting the big-block's exhaust out of a Holden engine bay it didn't come with. We publish no power or sound figures, so we describe it plainly as a 2in tri-Y conversion header set, a swap-focused part rather than a measured upgrade.

Will it suit my Holden HQ-WB conversion?

It's listed to suit a Chevrolet 396/454 big-block V8 fitted into the Holden HQ-WB. Conversion fitments depend heavily on the rest of the build — mounts, sump, steering — so this is firmly a confirm-with-the-workshop part before ordering. The supplier hasn't published a year range. Recommended retail is $1,515.28 for the pair.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits conversion header sets like this in-house across the Illawarra. Big-block swaps are clearance-critical, so we check the tri-Y primaries against your engine mounts, steering and chassis before committing the rest of the system. Bring your HQ-WB conversion details and we'll confirm the fitment.
