'82 6.0 swap HEDDER/MANIFOLD question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

kSStamp0182 · 01-09-2011, 04:52 PM

after much searching and confusion, i still have no idea who or where makes a LT hedder that will DEFINITELY fit my project. can someone please point me in the correct direction? also, i have F-body manifolds from an 01 SS i used to own. does anyone have confirmation that these will fit? if so i will just use them until a definite fitting hedder is released.

I dont have a square but I am told that Doug Thorely has LT header for your truck with the LS, also I have been told the TBSS manifolds work weel where you need them tucked close to the motor like block hugger shortie headers.

Dougs last time i checked does not have any. S&P sells some for close to 600 for shorties. I am going to try 98-02 f body headers. There is a person on here that has them installed. Think he had to slightly modify his controll arm or something.

yeah all i could find from dougs was for earlier models. thanks for the info tho, lemme know how the fbodies go. im gonna try the fbod manifolds, they definitely hug the block better than the lq4s. we'll see how it goes.

I used Sanderson Headers on my swap, I like them but they are shorties and you might not want those, give them a call and see if they can help you.

These are the only ones I've found. They are made by Heddman and are a bit pricey but like I said, they are the only ones I've found.
