Here is what i got done this afternoon, The 5.3L and the 4L60E is in. Here are some picures.
lookin good you have to clearance for the exhaust then?
I plan on puttin a 6.0 in this summer in my 86, but with carb th400, so im subscribin to this
acutally no i do not have the room. i do not want to cut the frame, so i am going to get the headers and have them cut and add 2 inches at the flange so they will clear the frame.
what headers r u getting and what do u have to do to them for them to fit?
header from summit part# SUM-G9048 $153.93 they are shorty headers fit 99-04 truck requires slight mods to PASS side rail
you can cut a small chunk out of the frame so it will clear or, you can do as i am i am going to cat the header off at the flange and and add about 2 inches of pipe in to it.
