                               EXECUTIVE ORDER D—115—18

                      Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156
                                   of the Vehicle Code

Vehicle Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Section 39515 and Section
39516 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Flowtech Shorty
Headers, manufactured and marketed by Holley Performance Products of 1801
Russeliville Road, Bowling Green, KY 42101 has been found not to reduce the

The Flowtech Shorty Headers are made up of a one—piece (per side), short tube style
header manufactured out of 16 gauge stainless steel tubing. Individual cylinder tubes
transfer the exhaust gases into a collector tube. The headers also include replacement
gaskets and assembly hardware. The location(s) of the oxygen sensor(s) are
unchanged from the original stock configuration.

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the Flowtech
Shorty Headers will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from
those of the vehicle manufacturer.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any Flowtech Shorty Headers advertised,
offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with
transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Flowtech Shorty Headers,
as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the
vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any Flowtech Shorty Headers advertised,
offered for sale, or sold with or installed on, a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with
transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

Marketing of the Flowtech Shorty Headers using any identification other than that shown
in this Executive Order or marketing of the Flowtech Shorty Headers for an application
other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval
is obtained from the Air Resources Board. Exemption of the Flowtech Shorty Headers
shall not be construed as exemption to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component
of the kit as an individual device.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the
Flowtech Shorty Headers may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the
vehicle manufacturer.

This Executive Order is granted based on carryover of the following previously
submitted emissions test data on a 1998 5.7L Chevrolet Camaro (Executive Order
D—164—5) and a 1999 4.0L Jeep Wrangler (Executive Order D—164—10):

1998 5.7L Chevrolet Camaro

                    HC        cCO     NOx
Standards           0.25      3.4      0.4
Device w/ dfs       0.16      1.2      0.2


1999 4.0L Jeep Wrangler

                   NMOG        CO      NOx     HCHO

Standards           0.160     4.4      0.7      0.018
Device w/ dfs       0.064     0.8      0.6      0.001

Test results showed that tailpipe emissions with the Flowtech Shorty Headers installed
on the vehicle will likely meet the vehicle‘s applicable emission standard during the Cold
Start Federal Test Procedure. This Executive Order is also based on an examination of
the On—Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) system of the 1999 Jeep Wrangler vehicle in the
modified configuration. Test data showed that the Flowtech Shorty Headers when
installed on the vehicle will not affect the vehicle‘s ability to perform its OBD II
monitoring.

In addition to the foregoing, the Air Resources Board reserves the right in the future to
review this Executive Order and the exemption provided herein to assure that the
exempted add—on or modified part continues to meet the standards and procedures of
Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222, et seq.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION,
ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE
AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING
ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF THE FLOWTECH
SHORTY HEADERS.

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board", may be made
with respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or wriften
communication.

Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this order.
The order may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of intention to revoke the
order, in which period the holder of the order may request in writing a hearing to contest
the proposed revocation. If a hearing is requested, it shall be held within ten days of
receipt of the request and the order may not be revoked until a determination is made
after the hearing that grounds for revocation exist.


Executed at El Monte, California, this _|_ day of July 2008.
