Default The Most Tucked LSX Manifolds that I have seen

LSA Manfiolds. They are as tight to the engine as anything that I have seen and I have a whole pile of LS manifolds. The studs are a weird size, but they are set 4 5/8" on center.

They also are designed for at least 550 hp and people have seen over 700 hp in a 09+ CTS-Vs with the stock manifolds.




















I am going to re-do my exhaust using a set, here is a test fit

So would these work on an e36 swap? Or is the steering shaft still going to hit?

I would guess that they will not work with an e36.

Ha, that was my first question too. Still looks like they'd stick out too far in the back.

Nice find Rob. I really hate all headers. If these are good enough for a 550HP LSA, they should definitely be fine for my 475HP L92...

wow these might work for my next project. What all would these have come on?

Why does the flange have to be so BIG!

Probably a dumb question, but what's an LSA.

Did these fit an E38 or E39 in those pictures?

LSA is the supercharged engine found in the Cadillac cts-v 2009+ rated at 556hp. Its based off the supercharged Corvette ZL1 LS9 engine rated at 638hp

A grinder will take care that big *** flange. Seems to be a lot of excess metal there for whatever reason. I was looking at that too.

We've got them coming in for stock just as soon as they are released. I don't know that we will stock all the finishes, but we will be able to get them in a hurry if you need one we don't have coming in already.

No pricing yet, as they are not officially shipping yet. I'm waiting to hear back on expected dates and pricing right now. I'll let you guys know pricing and dates ASAP

Now, if only it was cast with a v-band flange. We're just never satified, huh? LOL Nice looking piece, keep us updated.
