um ... wheres the link?
if you get long tube pacesetters to fit in your 98 you will be the first to accomplish that. There's no room for them to fit on the passenger side. NITROUS is in the process of designing some for manufacture. I have long tubes but they're hand built.
yeah i had heard nitrous is i guess if he has them done when i need them itll be a good investment other wise just go shorties or midlenght? ne brands that are recommended?Quote:

My right side f-body manifold would not work, it hit the rear upper a-arm frame mount. I had to use a 5.3 truck manifold.
Were yours the cast iron or stainless stamped units? Mine were the stainless ones and fit fine. Came on a 98 engine.
on my 6.0 i sused the stock manifolds and was alittle tight on the driverside but i think my y pipe turned out ok except my welds lol

Im building an iron 408 for a buddys 96 S10 that is getting swapped in with a T56 and were using these headers, made by sanderson.
Another option may be some mustang LS1 swap headers, kinda pricey but they are pretty tight to the block and should have enough clearance as well.
