When I was at Hedman the other day getting these pics I didn't have a dipstick with me, it looks like it'll be close. When I get a production pair of headers I'll verify the fitment.

The headers are in the production, they turned out really good. We built them with a set of production mounts to make sure everything will fit perfect. The new install guide will be available on our website in the next few days, if you need one in advance send me a PM with your email address and I'll get one out to you.

We have pictures of the mock-up headers installed, as soon as they first production run gets back from the coater I'll post pics of them installed in this truck.

Let em know what pics you'd like to see and I'll dig through them all and see what i can find. We have pics of the completed headers from the bottom, top, close to the tubes, spark plugs installed and checking the plug wire clearance, collector views, etc.

Mr Spree, great build. Did you look into swapping your T-56 to the forward shifter location? When we mocked-up the new kit we lined the shifter up with the factory hole in this location.
1BADNOMA Give me a call 770-751-0687, I'm sure we can work something out.

The new kit is now available on the website, and the new header part number should be on the website this week. The headers are on thier way back from the coaters and should be packaged up in the next few days.

Jeff

I just wish that someone would step down the price,so us poor people could afford a set of headers.I cann't see paying that much,even if you get more power and torque.Why do headers for an LS swap cost so much,when you can buy sbc headers all day long for 150.00.

Wow, you have to be the most irritating person on the planet. You are like a spoiled rich chick trying to get the newest pair of shoes that she wants, and no one makes them, but she can't understand why, and won't pay someone just to have them made.
