Its a blast to drive! Love having classic looks, modern handling, and kickass power. My idea of the perfect street car.

Nice build man, Your car is sick.... Where can I find the ls4 manifolds and flanges at? That passenger side header would clear my a/c setup... I need one of those bad...I'm trying to put together almost the same exact build..

Thanks

Sorry if I missed it, but
- what manifolds are those?
- think they would work with truck accesories?
- do you run dual exhaust? If so what size? Pics?

-Left=05-07 Trailblazer right side, Right=LS4
-Without a p/s pump sure, with a p/s pump, no way.
-Single 4" to the trans then 3.5" into a Magnaflow 6" case then out in back of the rr tire.

Thank you.

Mods for the winter: 231/236 cam to replace the 224/228, LS2/92mm to replace the LS1/78, porting the 799 heads, and some suspension tuning.

New goal. 8.99. Big goal but hey why not.
