Do you know if your headers are compatible with any of the aftermarket subframes for first Gen Camaros? I am looking using either the Art Morrison or Speed Tech subframe or maybe the Scott Mock subframe, but will be either doing a big inch LS or an LS with a supercharger. So am I looking for a header larger than the 1 3/4" primary headers that are available for those subframes.

Thanks,

David

David,

I will run that by both Nick(ARH owner) and our shop foreman Phil to see if they have the specifics on those subframes.

Thanks very much.

C3 - 71 Vette - LS3 Headers installed!

Took a little back and forth between us and ARH but we ended up with something that looks and fit great!

No top down photos because, well there just isn't much to see in the tight C3 engine bay.

I'd love to see some 1st generation S-10 long tubes. It seems to be a pretty popular swap! At least a 1-7/8" primary would be wonderful!

Any chance of posting this dim for your products? May be a big help to other swappers. I know it would to me...

If there is a demand, we can work on getting them in production.

I am another one that would like to see you guys start producing LS-swap headers for the '82 to '92 F-bodies!! Given how many of these cars are out there, I can't believe that Hawk's is really the only option!!

(My ideal would be a 1-7/8" set of headers with a merge collector option, but I'd be really happy to just see another vendor making these!!)

Steve, Here's my problem with these AR headers. These are the GEN134 headers attached to my LS/4L60e combo. 02 bungs are pointed straight at trans pan and only about an inch away. there is no room to install the 02 sensors. This was a big concern of mine at time of order but I was assured there wouldn't be any problems with the clearance.

Looked at tour site. Where do you find headers there for the 66 a-body. Working on a gto and was planning on using dougs. These look interesting.

There aren't too many options out there. I think Hedman makes some, BRP makes some, and the rest either use manifolds or S10 eBay headers. There is one build thread I saw where someone found some longtubes:





Which is a great design for boiling brake fluid and adding hours to a spark plug job.

I really wish someone made some nice S2000 swap headers. I would even be willing to test!

I don't know your contact info via screen name here, can you contact us so we can come up with a solution on the O2 location?
