Default Headers for LS1 swap into 71-76 b-body

Anyone know anyone other than S&P who makes headers for an LS swap into a 72-76 b-body? Going into a 73 Impala and would like to have some longtubes vs midlengths... Let me know!

I dont know of a specific company, but henry in kc told me that he used a set of 98 camaro pacesetters on his 78 caprice, look around and cross reference, you'll fine some. I bought headers for an 80 camaro for my 79 big block caprice and im going to use either 98 camaro pacesetters for my 6.0, 4l60e 79 caddy coupe swap or i'm going to drop some good coin on some brp 95 impala headers. Either way me nor kc in henry had to do ANY work to our headers in the above cars. Hope this helps.

Hmmm I was told that f-body headers wouldn't work... said the drivers side would fit but the passenger side needed either the frame notched or pipes re-routed... I read in another forum that the third gen f-body swap headers from hawks would fit without any modifications, but I don't have 800 to drop on something word of mouth.
