Im going to be fabricating a set of long tube headers for a friend. He is transplanting an LS1/T56 into a 2002 EXtreme chevy truck.
Ive built three sets of headers in the past but they have been either SBC, or GN motor combinations. The last set I built, I had laser cut flanges and they were very nice to use. The previous two sets, I cut my own flanges at the shop I work for using the NC plasma table.
Thats fine and dandy but its tough to get a nice, clean plasma cut flange like a laser cut flange.
Anyway, back to my question.
Does anyone know where I can purchase bare LS1 header flanges? They will likely be 1 3/4" primary tubes so thats something I have to keep in mind.
Thanks

Okay, let me reform my question.
SOMETHING INEXPENSIVE
Stainlessworks is salty.
headersbyed is salty.
There isnt $80 in a set ofo 1/4" thick header flanges. There isnt even $80 in time. LOL
