Good thing i ordered some LT's! I was thinking about thinking about pulling the headers off today but after tearing this much of the motor down i didnt want to mess with it.

Anyone want to buy them?!

Wow! those suck! Judging by the look of the headers and how they cover your spark plugs I'd say they haven't been changed since about...'94! LOL

Im rebuilding the bottom end with forged pistons, getting it balanced, and having my builder decided on a ring gap for some nitrous in the future. Im also installing some LT's and porting my own heads.

Those almost look like they would work worse than the stock manifolds.

I've seen the Dynomax headers before. I think they are "equal length" but that's a bunch of **** I think.
