PH 5343 LS V8 Conversion to suit Holden HQ-WB 1 7/8" 4 into 1 Competition Header.
Category: Extractors and headers


The Pacemaker PH5343_L_R is a pair of 1-7/8in 4-into-1 competition headers built for an LS V8 conversion into the Holden HQ-WB. Supplied as a left and right set, they're the engine-side replacement for the cast factory manifolds when you swap an LS into an early Holden.
PH5343_L_R is a left-and-right header pair, the section of the exhaust that bolts straight to the cylinder heads and gathers the runners before the rest of the system. It uses a 1-7/8in primary tube into a 4-into-1 collector on each bank. Because it's listed for the LS conversion, it's shaped to clear the early Holden chassis and steering once that engine is sitting in HQ-WB body rails.
A header (or extractor) replaces the restrictive cast exhaust manifold with separate steel tubes. In a 4-into-1 design the four primaries on a bank merge into a single collector, a layout favoured for top-end flow over low-rpm response, which is why it's badged competition rather than touring. It changes how freely the V8 breathes on the exhaust side and usually how it sounds. Material isn't published by the supplier.
It's listed to fit a V8 LS conversion in the Holden HQ-WB body. Holden ran that body family across several model codes, so the steering box, chassis and engine mount position on your specific build matter as much as the model badge. Send us your conversion details and we'll confirm the primaries clear before you commit, since header fitment on an engine swap is build-specific and the listing is a guide, not a guarantee.
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits and matches header sets like this across the Illawarra. As these are described as competition headers, confirm road-registration requirements for your build with the workshop before fitting. We can mock up the headers against your LS-swapped HQ-WB, check clearance to the steering and crossmember, and build the rest of the system back from the collectors. The set carries a recommended retail of 1362.53 AUD and may be a special-order item.
