Default 2in primary headers?

Does anyone make these for LT1 fbods? The current setup is FLP LT's and they are 1 3/4" right? So 2" or 1/78 are a must for future setup. Who makes some big tube headers?

I don't think anyone makes 2" headers for the LT1 off the shelf. I think that might be a custom only piece. Never heard of anyone making them without it being custom.

There is nothing off the shelf and you really need a serious exhaust port to even warrant that big of a header.

Well 1 7/8" headers are hard enough to come by as it is. Never heard of a 2" header on a small block anyway. I'm with the Big Show here, you're going to have to flow some serious air to need a header that big. The fastest LS1s are running 1 7/8" headers and they flow at least 20% better than LT1 castings.
