Tailored precisely to fit the high-revving 3.0-Litre 24-Valve SOHC inline-configured V6 petrol engine (legendary 6G72 platform) housed within MK Triton models built from 1996 to July 2006, alongside PA Challenger builds from 1998 to 2006, this premium upgrade is manufactured entirely from high-grade stainless steel. It delivers elite thermal stability and complete defense against off-road mud bake, ocean beach salt corruption, and atmospheric rusting. By replacing highly restrictive factory cast iron manifolds, it dramatically lowers engine backpressure and optimizes gas scavenging velocity to unlock crucial low-to-mid range torque, crisp throttle response, and a robust V6 exhaust note.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature-block\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature-content pb-6\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #e60000; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003ePRODUCT CONTENTS:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Premium Stainless Steel Left-Hand V6 Extractor Header Assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Premium Stainless Steel Right-Hand V6 Extractor Header Assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-grade stainless steel construction provides ultimate protection against harsh off-road elements, commercial site grime, and severe cyclical engine bay thermal stress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom clearance-mapped around both 2WD and heavy-duty 4WD drivetrain components, passing front driveshafts, transfer case structures, and front torsion bar suspension paths cleanly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuned mandrel-bent primary piping pathways ensure completely uniform internal flow geometry, optimizing exhaust velocity past tight engine bay side walls and steering column shunts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubstantially optimizes low-to-mid range working torque curves—ideal for restoring throttle crispness, improving heavy towing capacity, and enhancing off-road crawling tractability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick, 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"flex flex-col space-y-2 text-xs\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003eAdvance Headers\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003eA348SS\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003ePremium High-Grade Stainless Steel (S\/Steel)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eEngine Suitability:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003eMitsubishi 3.0L V6 Petrol Only (6G72 24-Valve Single Overhead Cam Blocks Only)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eDrivetrain Compatibility:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003eFits Both 2WD and 4WD Chassis Layouts\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eComponent Type:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003ePremium Performance Exhaust Extractors \/ Headers\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eEstimated Fitting Time:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003e3 Hours\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"text-gray-500 font-semibold mr-1\"\u003eWelding Required:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"text-gray-700\"\u003eNo (Direct Bolt-On Configuration to Cylinder Head Face)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Crucial Engine Valve Architecture \u0026amp; Variant Alignment Warnings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1. \u003cstrong\u003eStrictly 24-Valve 6G72 Engines Only:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product (Part No. \u003cstrong\u003eA348SS\u003c\/strong\u003e) is designed and port-mapped exclusively for the **later 24-valve SOHC cylinder head configurations**.
