Default 6.0 headers for f-body

Im thinking about bolting on a set of ls2 heads on my ls1 to lower the compression for a procharger(just because of the cheap cost). I was wondering what headers everyone was using because of the D shaped exhaust ports or are you guys just using a stock set of 6.0 manifolds? I currently have pacesetter LTs, but I know they won't work.

The LS2 heads have the same exhaust port size and location as the LS6. Standard F-body headers will work just fine. Why do think that they won't?

You are probably thinking of LQ9 (6.0 truck heads) heads to lower compression ratio. The LS2 heads are either the same size chamber or smaller. And LS2/LQ9 heads can all use the same headers.

All the 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0's have the same exhaust ports...

Standard F-body headers will work with any of the heads mentioned.

I didn't think LQ9 heads fit LS1's?
