The Pacemaker PH5342_L_R is a pair of LS V8 conversion headers built to suit a Holden HQ–WB. It's a 1¾in, four-into-one design for fitting an LS V8 into the older Holden body, supplied as a left-and-right set.

What are LS conversion headers?

These are headers made specifically for dropping an LS-family V8 into a body it didn't come with — here, the Holden HQ–WB. The four-into-one layout merges each bank's runners into a single collector, and the 1¾in primary tube size suits the engine. Conversion headers exist because off-the-shelf manifolds rarely clear the older chassis, steering and engine mounts; they're the manifold portion of the swap, supplied as a left-and-right pair.

Will it suit my HQ-WB LS conversion?

It's listed to suit an LS V8 conversion in a Holden HQ–WB. Engine swaps are highly build-specific — mounts, steering and sump all matter — so confirm your exact conversion details with the workshop before ordering rather than relying on the listing alone.

Is it road legal?

An engine conversion's road compliance is governed by the whole vehicle and how the swap is engineered and certified, not the header alone. We can talk through what your HQ–WB conversion needs and any NSW requirements before fitting.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits LS conversion headers in-house across the Illawarra. On an HQ–WB swap we check steering and chassis clearance, the gasket faces and how the collectors meet the rest of the system. The recommended retail is $1,362.53, which we confirm with you, along with availability, before ordering.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
