Default what exhaust manifolds will work

Will the stock exhaust manifolds from the 2002-2006 6.0L Escalade bolt up to LS2 out of a GTO? I am working on a retrofit and the truck headers dump out at the back of the block...

What is wrong with using the stock manifolds that were on the LS-2 engine when it was in the GTO? The stock manifolds are very well designed and will flow very well..

I dont have a set from the GTO.. and they dont look like they will clear the engine crossmember in the Chevelle ... the truck ones look like they exit out back further and would clear everything...

I'd be surprised if they didn't clear. Go check out the LS2gto.com for sale section, there are folks selling stock manifolds there all the time. If you don't see any for sale, just ask via a WTB thread, you'll find a seller, possibly in your area so you don't have to pay shipping.

Those manifolds are basically cast iron shorty headers.

TBSS or SSR manifolds might be worth looking at as well.
Where's local? I've got some TBSS manifolds collecting dust.

Local is Las Vegas... I got a set of Silverado manifolds.... the SSR look like they hug the block better... not sure what the TBSS look like... got any pics to post....

I moved and the car is still at the old house... not enough time left in the day right now... may be a few weeks B4 I get to test fit the ones I have now....

TrailBlazerSS.com
Hit up Supercoolin and Coach. IIRC they are local to you and prolly have manifolds you could look at.
