What Headers with Vortec Heads?
 
been looking through summit , maybe I am not searching correctly, but I cant find any headers for use with vortec heads that fit our trucks. Anybody went this route and found the right headers? :confused:

Correct me someone if I am wrong, but I believe standard smallblock headers will bolt right up to vortec heads. I know a couple guys runnin vortecs and thats what they have. This is also assuming that you are talking about the regular vortec heads and not for a 5.3 or 6.0 Litre late model stuff.

I put '96 truck Vortec heads on my Vette and used the old headers. Fit fine and fantastic performance boost.

Thorley has headers for these trucks that fit Vortec heads...Using them on our RamJet. Might have to trim the frame a little to fit, but not anything difficult.
