Default specific LS1 short headers

98-02 fbodies exhaust manifolds work for my swap......almost

I have searched for 2 days with no luck....

So guys, In your surf and search adventures have you guys seen anyone make shorty headers for 98-02 fbodies but
1. without those air tube ports and
2. that has some slip fit or ball and flange or 3 bolt flange anything except for the stock funky flanges.
3. The collector/flanges are the same left and right

I was that too many requirements!! i hope not. fingers crossed

Those are what they call block huggers. Good find.

what I am looking for is steel tube replicas of 98-02 Fbody manifolds with different from stock collectors.

because most ppl with those cars go strait for lt, since the price for is similar and the effort to install them is the same.
if anyhting find some cheep fbody shorties and cut off the triangle flanges and weld on v band flanges, for clearance and good sealing and easy to install.
