Default Any sponsors here Fab turbo headers that curve up and forward ?

As the post states i want to buy a set of up and forward turbo headers for an ls1 f-body with V bands at the collector to mount the turbo. I have pictures of what i want. Please pm me to talk thank you.

They do look nice and the price is right. but it says that they are for ls engine swaps not for Fbodies. Unless hes willing to do a set for that price lol.

If im not mistaken he mocked them up on an Fbody and they looked ok. I could be thinking of something else though.

Was it a 4th gen fbody. that would be sweet. i was going to get the stainless works ones but then i seen that on a 4th gen they cannot be flipped upward but on a 3rd gen u could and you had to mess wit the steering. not sure if thats jsut with thim in the down positon though. That would be great if they will work on a 4th gen. maybe he will see this thread and post up some pics and let us know lol. Thanks for the insight. i will remain hopful. id deff rather buy a set for a grand or so then make them.

i realize this and already baught a set. but this is my dream build for my car and i want the exotic look of the headers. it will also be much easier to position the turbos where i want them and have them be even.

stainless works doesnt make a set like i want for a 4th gen fbody. the strut towers are tighter and they dont fit. to run those headers they must be tipped down. if i was goign to do that i would just use the manifolds i have. unless they make diff ones then they have on there site?

I thought Shawn from VA Speed said he would make them for an F-body specific if there was demand?

Also, Google spoolinperformance...Or, do a search on here for TurboZ28408.

those sppoling headers look great only the pass header curves in towards the middle for a single turbo car. i just need them to go straight out so i can mount each turbo evenly off each collector.

why cant you run the down and forward headers from SW?
if those dont work you will have to find some one to custom make what you want.
