GMC Sonoma Exhaust Manifold

Exhaust Manifold operating in GMC Sonama models plays a critical role of channeling hot fumes produced in the engine back into the exhaust system; through the catalytic converter and the muffling system. Sitting in variable locations on the engine block the manifold aims to stop intake reversion which slows the flow of air to the engine. GMC Sonoma exhaust manifolds can further be of cast iron or stainless steel and headers commonly exist in parts to improve flow resistance of the engine. Headers enhance exhaust gas velocity so as to enhance the performance of the vehicle. The material put into the exhaust manifold and the design as well that has been put into the engine can change the efficiency and durability and some changes like coatings with ceramics can also change the life expectancy. It is therefore crucial that general and regular maintenance and replacement of a defective exhaust manifold is docketed so as to enhance the efficacy of the car and safety.

Each OEM GMC Sonoma Exhaust Manifold we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
