The pros at BRP Hot Rods have rolled out an all-new line of mid-length headers for Gen 5 LT swaps, giving builders another smart option when packaging space is tight but performance still matters. These headers feature 1-⅞-inch primary tubes feeding into a 3-inch slip-fit collector, along with thick ⅜-inch laser-cut flanges to ensure a solid seal at the cylinder head. That flange thickness isn’t just a spec-sheet number; it helps resist warping under heat cycles and keeps exhaust leaks from turning into a constant headache.
The mid-length design strikes a balance between compact shorties and full long-tubes. Builders get improved chassis coverage and easier routing around steering shafts, crossmembers, and suspension components, while still maintaining strong exhaust scavenging and real power potential. For swaps where ground clearance, transmission location, or custom exhaust routing is a concern, this format makes life a lot easier without sacrificing performance.

For more than 20 years, BRP Hot Rods has been the go-to source for functional, proven LS and LT conversion kits. The company offers solutions for nearly every GM vehicle produced from 1955 to 2005, and unlike companies that simply resell parts, BRP tests and assembles its systems in-house. That means the headers, mounts, and supporting components are engineered to work together, not fight each other during installation. Customers also benefit from support staff who have actually installed the products themselves, not just read about them in a catalog.
Like BRP’s long-tube Gen 5 LT swap headers, these new mid-length units are designed specifically to work with the company’s engine and transmission mount kits for a true bolt-in experience. They also feature a durable silver ceramic coating to help manage underhood temperatures, reduce corrosion, and keep that fresh-built look intact for years.

For builders tackling a Gen 5 LT swap and looking for a header option that fits as good as it flows, BRP’s new mid-length lineup delivers a practical, performance-driven solution. They’re available now at BRPHotRods.com and MuscleRods.com, alongside BRP’s complete range of LS and LT swap components. If you’d rather give them a call, BRP Hot Rods can be reached at 770-751-0687.
