Re: My 1954 Chevy PickUp-truck
Sweeeeet! I love it... Is that a stock LS2 engine or is it modified?
I have one issue with the setup, you should replace the crank pulley with a 25% underdrive pulley which would make it look better and also give an additional 5 RWHP, but damn, that's sweet. can't wait to see the rest of the build, please post more pics. We love pictures. Tri5 |

Re: My 1954 Chevy PickUp-truck
Daniel U, he is using a LS engine, headers like yours will not fit his heads.
That was one of the questions I have also.

Re: My 1954 Chevy PickUp-truck
I think that Street and Performance would be the best solution. They should have a block hugger style header for the LS, I have seen them everywhere but can't figure out where.
