It has been know that F-Body headers will fit on a A-body.. so.. good chance that they will work with a little bit of work on a g-body.. but keep us post if you try it and it works out or where and what you have to mod !

and there are many g.body swaps that run f-body headers with only minor modifications, so i figured... theese look like they could help in the HP department, and since they are almost the same price, why buy an inferior product?

no offence taken....

in the meanwhile i have read the threads in the LSx swap section on www.maliburacing.com and there were a few people running f-body headers, they did however have to run the engine prety far back (so far as to have to modify the heaterbox slightly) but with the advantage of not having to modify the f-body oilpan to clear the crossmember....

that way the f.body headers only needed clearancihg in the pass side... weather the edelbrocks fit though, im non the wiser..
