LS fenderwell headers
Am thinking about trying to modify a set of tri-five fenderwell headers for my 55 Olds 88 custom (LS2). No reason other than I think it would look really cool to see the pipes in the fenderwell area. The 55 has a large open area behind the front wheel.
Does anyone have any idea which chevy motor has the exhaust ports closest to the LS, big block or small block?
I would just look for a cheap set of un-coated headers and see what happens.
I figured I could get flanges laser cut locally.
Thanks for any input.

I figured on cutting and fitting to the LS openings. Should I not be worried about the huge 2" primaries for these BBC headers? Won't that affect performance?
I was looking at some of the small block designs and it seems like it wouldn't be that tough to spread (cut & weld) the center pipes apart? Assuming I'd also have to move a third port too.
I might be biting off more than I can chew, but if I can find a good deal on the headers I'll give it a shot.......
