Mustang conversion headers....plates I'm getting ready to start on my LS1 swap. I have a set of Hooker 351W headers that came off the car. These have a splayed bolt pattern. In order to make these work, I used adapter plates. Why couldn't you make an adapter plate that bolts to the LS1 head and adapts it to the SBF header? I would think this would save ALOT of cutting and fabricating with changing the flanges out
Anyone done this?

Ok, that makes sense. I'll prob just cut the flanges off. I didn't realize they were that close to the frame.
Thanks
