Advance Headers High-Performance Mild Steel Exhaust Extractors for Ford Falcon EA to AU & Longreach Ute XG to XH 3.9L & 4.0L SOHC Inline 6-Cylinder Engines
The Advance Headers Performance Exhaust Extractors (A692) are heavy-duty tubular manifolds custom-engineered for the legendary generations of the Australian overhead-cam Ford Falcon passenger cars and Longreach commercial utilities. Tailored precisely to fit the highly robust 3.9-Litre and 4.0-Litre Single Overhead Cam (SOHC) inline 6-cylinder engine architectures housed within the EA, EB, ED, EF, EL, and AU Falcon series—as well as the dedicated XG and XH commercial workhorse utility runs—this premium upgrade replaces the highly restrictive factory cast iron log manifolds. By maximizing exhaust gas scavenging velocity and significantly lowering engine backpressure, it unlocks vital low-to-mid range torque, crisp throttle response, and that signature deep, clean Aussie inline-6 roar.
PRODUCT CONTENTS:
- 1 x Heavy-Duty Mild Steel 6-Cylinder Performance SOHC Extractor Header Assembly
Key Features:
- Highly versatile engineering matrix mapped to seamlessly clear steering boxes, rack and pinion mechanisms, and firewall geometries across multiple vehicle generations (EA through AU)
- Tuned mandrel-bent primary piping pathways ensure completely uniform internal flow geometry, optimizing gas velocity and removing heavy factory casting traps
- Substantially optimizes low-to-mid range torque delivery—ideal for improving street throttle crispness, cruising manners, and heavy commercial towing or hauling setups
- Heavy-duty mild steel construction structurally built to handle intense under-bonnet thermal expansion cycles and typical inline-6 engine operational vibrations safely
- Thick, precision laser-cut cylinder head flanges maintain a flat, ultra-stable mating footprint to permanently guard against face distortion, thermal warping, and high-pressure exhaust leaks
- Engineered for a fast workshop turnaround, featuring an estimated baseline installation window of just 1.5 hours

- Estimated Fitting Time: 1.5 Hours
- Welding Required: No (Direct Bolt-On Configuration to Cylinder Head Face)
⚠️ Crucial Model Generation & Engine Variant Alignment Warnings:
1. Strictly SOHC Overhead Cam Models Only: This product (Part No. A692) is designed and space-mapped exclusively for the Ford single overhead cam 3.9L/4.0L inline-6 family. It will NOT fit early pushrod Crossflow engines (found in XF and older models) or later multi-valve DOHC engines (such as the Barra 182/190 series found in BA-BF models) due to entirely distinct port spacing, flange shapes, and bolt indexing coordinates.
2. Downstream Sensor Check: Formed to clear factory oxygen sensor loops and layout parameters across EA to AU applications cleanly. Always inspect downstream intermediate pipe routing connections on older, hard-worked commercial utility chassis prior to torque-down phases.
Please Note: Professional installation by an exhaust specialist or qualified automotive mechanic is highly recommended to guarantee proper system alignment, optimal under-bonnet routing checkouts, and a perfect leak-free seal.
