Would I benefit any from LS3 manifolds?
I have a pair of factory 10' camaro SS LS3 manifolds I got for free, conincidentally my car also has an exhaust manfiold gasket leaking. Since im going to have to take one of the manifolds off anyways to replace said gasket would I see any gain or benefit from putting the LS3 ehxaust manifolds on my LS1? I plan on buying headers eventually but right now they are outside the budget and since I cant find a buyer for the ls3 manifolds im wondering if putting them on my car would be a better idea than scrapping them. Thoughts?

Would be more of a pain than benificial.. The LS3 manifolds dont have O2 bungs in them were as your mani's do.. Plus the flanges are different as well (3 stud ls1 vs 2 stud LS3) .. Save yourself the time, just replace your gaskets and save for long tubes like stated above.

Kinda the way I was leaning but I wasnt real sure and I didnt want to scrap something beneficial. And actually Im probably going to end up with mid lengths, I want to lower the car and Oklahoma roads...well.......they suck.
