Default exhaust manifold help

I need an exhaust manifold that looks like the passinger side of a 98 Pontiac LS1 to bolt on the drivers side on a 98 LS1. My steering geer is in the way of the stock manifold so I have to exit the exhaust on a 45 degree off of #7 going down the firewall.

I assume this isn't an Fbody or Vette then??

I have no idea but can you simple use the passenger side manifold or adapt it. I mean it's not probably a common request so I would be suprised if there's an off the shelf solution.

I've posted this before but this is my left side. As far as a GM part is concerned, it is probably close to what you need. If this won't get it done, you'll need to do something like Pat is doing for his Stude'.

Oh yeah...this is 1997 Y body, first design "sheet metal" manifold

Take a look at the truck manifold. It is a log type similar to the passenger's Camaro, but dumps a little further back. I don't have a picture, but you should be able to find one on here.

I think these are actually stainless, aren't they? Anyway, I have an extra set. PM if interested.
