Will S-10 SBC headers fit our trucks?
 

As the title says. Will SBC headers for an s-10 fit in our trucks? I have a buddy who will give me a set if they will fit. But I would rather ask before tearing everything apart to find out. Does anybody know?

Id hazard a guess and say yeah. A S-10 frame is similar to a chevelle frame and they'll fit.

Come on gerald, you should know, with a torch and a welder, anything will fit :D

Take a good look at the driver side header (S-10) and measure the clearance between the motor and steering shaft. On the S-10 the steering shaft runs through the header so the header is designed with clearance. That kick out might cause a problem on a C-10.

I have a V-8 S-10 but my C-10 is a big block so I can't really eyeball it for you.

Thanks Bryan. That was the part I was afraid of is that steering shaft clearance. Would you mind taking a measure of your headers for me since they are on the S-10? That way it is more accurate than one of the header alone. That would be appreciated. :)

Here ya go, looks like the shaft runs right at 3" from the header flange.

They fit, My truck has a set of s10 shortys on it right now. I'm not happy with them though (they came on the truck when I bought it), in order to pull some of the the spark plugs on the passanger side you have to remove the header, because of the way the pipes run.

I made a wrench to handle that issue. I'll try and get a picture up.
