Default Fox Body Swap Header & Crossmember

What's everyone using for headers? I've seen ls1mustang.com's modified 5.0 headers, but what's everybody else using? Any off the self LS1 universal headers work?

Also anyone have any pics of there modified stock or custom tranny crossmember? Automatic preferred but anything to get a look at what need to be done.

"And yes I read the LS1 Mustang Hot Rod Article below"

modified 351W/fox swap headers seem to be most prevelent. mine are mac 1 3/4". mine uses the stock x'member for the trans, just slightly modified. no direct replacement for anything yet. you'll need to modify your motor mounts with whatever k-member you use too, 5.0, 4.6, or sbc. they all need to be somewhat fabbed. the hot rod one is a work in progress. type "mustang" & or "fox" in the search box. there's finished projects out there. i have no pics for you though, sorry.

I plan on a AJE Racing SBC K-Member with SBC-to-LS1 Adapter Plates from www.hotrodlane.cc

I'd just like to see some headers and tranny members. I know anything can work with the right amount of money, but what works BEST..
Thanks, for the info pray hrd
