Default 5th gen manifolds on 02 5.3?

Basically, will they fit? Exhaust manifold off a 5th gen camaro.

Also, whats the difference between them and an 02 fbody manifold? Better? Worse? Same? Needing to replace my truck manifolds with a slimmer profile manifold. (Dropping it in an 88 RX7, and the manifolds don't fit, need fbody manifolds. Everyone uses 99-02 or so... no one has tried the 5th gen ones though)

Anywho, bit of rambling, but hopefully you guys can help me out!

Looks like you'll be the first to try this-let us know how it works out.

I think they fit in the f-body if that helps.

The should flow better due to the updated design...all the ports are the same on Ls engines so you are good to go...
