Default TSP Headers in a G body

Has anyone seen or heard of the Texas speed long tube headers foe their fitment on a g body? The headers look similar to the pacesetters for the fbody so I'm curious as to if they would fit or not. 500 bux for a set of long tubes that are stainless steel isn't bad at all...just the fitment is an unknown and I do not want to chance them not fitting at all!

Do you have a part # for the moroso mounts? How is the clearance on the passenger side frame rail? Pics would be awesome.

I plan to run the 1 inch set back plates, do the moroso mounts keep the motor in stock position or do they move it back as well? And hows the fitment overall?

I have the 1 7/8" Primary Heddman ones with the normal SBC->LSX Plates you find all over ebay and it cleared like everywhere by 1/8"..pretty much was in the perfect spot.

Yea hammering or denting is nothing that I am afraid of it was cutting or notching that I want to stay away from. Not bad for stainless long tubes too at a 400 dollar ring.
