Re: Okay 73-87 ls swap guys/gals, I need ya.

I guess the swap headers for our trucks are a no go for now??? I'm in the market for some right now and was hoping for these.

I live in the San Bernardino area as well. What type of motor mount/frame stands did you use. I would like to base this header design off of the cpp mounts or similar. Please give me a call (951) 733-1052 to discuss the details.

Thanks!
Jamie

Been thinking about it and the more I look at the old big block chevy headers they seem to have the same spacing as the ls1 ports. They're also already made to clear the body and frame on our trucks. Couldn't you grab a driver's side header from your own tri Y BBC headers stock and see if it lines up? Then it would just be a matter of the proper flange and block/transmission clearance.
