1982-1993 S-10 In-Frame Headers
With the success of the in-frame 1 3/4" long tube headers we offer for the 1994-2003 (2WD) S-10s we decided to go back and re-design our 1982-1993 (2WD) S-10 headers. We have mocked-up a set of 1 3/4" long tubes and as soon as we get back from SEMA we'll be checking fitment on a few different trucks and then we'll start building them. Since it's a really tight installation we've already found that some of the trucks require slight floor/tunnel mods to clear the headers. It's not a major modification, enough clearance can be obtained with a hammer. We are going to add a template to the installation guide so that you can print it out, cut it out and check the clearance. We are also building application specific bolt-in cross-members. We also went ahead and enlarged the holes slightly in the frame brackets to offer a little adjustability.

So you have fully in-frame longtubes for the 94+ s10's now? I cant seem to find them on your site. I know you've made the ones with the single tube running outside the frame now for a while.
Thanks

Sorry for the delay, I took a few days off after SEMA. The mock-up header is at Husler (Hedman's Racing Division) and as soon they can get it built and the first run coated they will ba available. The 94-03 S-10 kit was one of the kits we brought to display at SEMA.
TiresmokinV8-The headers aren't listed on the website yet, they are available #MR45906 and are $669.00 coated. Please call us to order them so that we can verify they are in-stock when you place the order.
tennerv8-We do not try our headers with other manufacturer's mounts, but this application is ver tight and I wouldn't suggest using them with anyone else's mounts.
ws6ed-We are working on a TH350 cross-member, YES once it's available we will offer it in-place of the 4L60E cross-member in our kit.

BRP 13/4 lt in frame for 94 and newer s10
I just purchased and installed these lt hedders for my 98SS s10 RCSB. They fit very good and look good too! and no, I do not work for BRP! After installing the hedders, I went from 12.23@113mph to 11.90@115 just from the hedder change with no other change. Still tuning. I think there's more. I have a bone stock 5.3 with a GM hot cam,holley 750,3k conv,Th350 with lots of suspension tuning.

Take some pictures bro!
Did you use their mounts, and also what trans did you use? If it was a 4L60, how close are the collectors to the servo cover?
Thanks!

They are identical to the late model headers accept for tubes 6&8, but I haven't taken pictures of the early ones. We are getting ready to take pictures of all of our 2011 new products for the new catalog at SEMA,

Here's a build of the late model S-10 headers in a Blazer with our mounts (he built his own crossmember).
