Ls1 headers

Im currently building a patina 1953 bel air with a Ls1

. One of the biggest problems that I have faced where finding headers that wouldn't turn straight down on top of the motor mounts or the rear dump headers I tried would turn out toward the frame leaving no room to run exhaust. I finally found the perfect set and there made by XS POWER. They are very well built and you don't break tha car fund buying them. They hug the block very close and allowed me more than enough room for exhaust.

Suggestion - heat wrap that passenger side at the very least to help lower temperatures near the starter.

Thanks darth for the suggestion. I'm in the process of making a heat shield for the starter.
