Some exhaust manifold measurments
I have a few sets of manifolds laying around and figured some pictures and measurment would help someone out.
LS3 manifolds
I ran these on my Chevy II with a hacked up stock clip.
Inverted for the turbo crowd
GTO manifolds
C5 manifolds
Top to botom LS3, GTO, C5

Outstanding!! You just saved me a ton of work. I was just headed out to the shop to do this very thing on my set of GTO manifolds. I needed the pics and measurements so I could answer an inquiry from a guy about buying them. Now, all I have to do is e-mail him and tell him where to look, Thanks! With all the questions on this forum about exhaust manifolds and headers, they really should make a sticky out of this. Ron

I add more pictures with them inverted. Cylinder #3 is close fabricated valve covers won't fit I didn't have any stock covers kicking around to try. If you turn them around with them still pointing down they block the motor mount.

any chance of getting a few more measurements on those pacesetters? like how far out to the side they go, and how far down towards the ground? i hate to drop 300 plus shipping to find out i can't even use them. thanks, nick

Josh, a few questions on the C5 manifolds.
Did the C5 manifolds clear without touching the subframe?
Are they stainless and can they be welded on?
Did you try them on the car with the stock clip?
I am building a wagon with an LSx platform, and looked at these manifolds as an alternative to headers.......I don't want to cut the front end up, but am not opposed to notching a little, or cutting the collector flanges off and reclocking them....

those LS3 manifolds look great for doing a setup in a tight area. I know most 3rd gen guys go with the fbody mani's, but those look like they may give a bit more wiggle room for working on things
