Pacesetter TBSS Long Tube Header Install on my 6.0L in my 69' C10 - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Guess it depends on the engine mounts being used my driver side collector is very close to that frame rail and I had to trim off about 1/2 in or more to make it clear. Other than that they fit great and I used the stock truck dipstick. So that is verified to work as well.

hat e to bring an old thread back to life, but Im looking at buying the TBSS pacesetter for mine but looking at the pictures my crossmember and mounts looks different than yours.

I bought the truck with the LS swapped in so all I know is that they are transdapt mounts.

Can anyone shed any light on my situation does it look like they will fit? I kinda dont think so with my crossmember mounted on top of the frame like it is.

Why is my crossmemeber different than your trucks?

Thanks for any help

No problem, looks like you might have room since your mount goes downward and out of the way but its hard to tell from the pics. I think they may be worth a try on your truck since it looks like your already have room for the factory truck manifolds from the pic. Maybe someone else has an opinion on it too?

yeah its got the factory truck manifolds on it now. I just hate to buy some $500 headers and them not fit.

Well if you compare the two, you can kinda see the difference in motor mount setups. jmiller022's mounts look to be father forward on the block, like right under cyl. 1 exhaust port, where as matthew20061's mounts look to be father back near the cyl. 3 exhaust port.
