BNH1 Header Set, Buick Nailhead https://sandersonheaders.com/product/bnh1-header-set-buick-nailhead/ https://sandersonheaders.com/product/bnh1-header-set-buick-nailhead/#respond Mon, 08 May 2023 00:20:52 +0000 https://sandersonheaders.com/?post_type=product&p=7903 The BNH1 is one of our header designs for “nostalgia” engines. The letters “BNH” stand for “Buick Nailhead”, the venerable Buick V8 engine that powered numerous dragsters, lakesters, and hot rods in the sixties and seventies. A build-up series some time ago by Doc Frohmader in Street Rodder Magazine has sparked a renewed interest in the mighty 364, 401, and 425 engines.

The BNH1 header fits all street rod chassis, pickups, and customs without a cross member under the center of the engine, or steering interference just behind the center of the engine.

Comes with all hardware necessary for installation.
