Default Can anyone tell me what headers these are?
I purchase a rebuilt engine from a guy putting an LT1 into an S10, he said the engine and headers are from a 94 Z28. Come to find out the engine is a Caprice LT1 with aftermarket heads. So the queston is, are these F-body, Caprice or something else. Thx

Look like F-body headers....I'm pretty sure impala/caprice headers are all shorties with the weird looking u-shaped tubes.

They don't look like any fbody headers I've seen. Or any on the WS6store website. Maybe they are caprice headers after all.

I thought Hookers had a slip-fit on the #1 primary tube...

...look like generic 1 5/8 sbc headers for a truck

Those don't look like 4th gen headers to me. We'd all be ecstatic with that spark plug access.

What I should have said is, they look exactly like the #1 result that came up when I typed "hooker LT1 headers" into a google image search.

I looked up the hooker headers, they seem different. Maybe I should just sell these to a conversion guy. I know they bolt up as I had done so before I put the engine back in. I decided to keep the stock manifolds on as it was recomended for the rear turbo set up I was doing. Keep the thoughts coming, would really like to know what these are.

Those aren't hookers, looks like a truck header. Probably flowtechs if I was to guess.

They're obviously SBC headers, but look like either EARLY f-body headers, think '67-'81 era, or possibly '64-'76 Chevelle......

Not 4th gen. The right side header would never fit. The tubes come way to far forward.
