Street & Performance has a write-up of an LSx install into an X-frame Chevy. Parts available as well.

we have a nice swap kit that runs the 98-02 F-Body oil pan with the OEM ACC for the 58-64 B-Body and my 62 is being mocked up for 7 hedder options right now. I will 6 long tube hedder with up to 2in primaries and one mid legth hedder.

Thanks

Will I need aftermarket headers if i purchase your mounts for lq4 into a 64 impala - aside from the truck headers - or can i just use the ls1 headers?

The 98-02 F-Body manifolds will also work and the 98-99 are stainless.

Thanks
