Hey guys, was wondering if anybody has any pics of 4x4's with LS series motors installed. I'm looking for long tube headers to fit. I have Classic Performance motormounts and a NV4500/205 combo. Any ideas and pictures would be great

I'm having a 454 lsx shortblock built next month from texas speed. I'll send pics as soon as she arrives

Only reason I ask is I had to have a new crossmember fabbed up to work, also had to lift the truck minimum 2.5" to clear stock D44 with oil pan, mines a K20 so yours may vary, but the guy that made the crossmember for me plans to make a kit out of it, let me know if you'd like his number, I'm sure he kept the templates and could whip one out for ya

Pics give an idea of the mod to header

I used the ones from Stainless Works but had to cut the collectors back to miss my cross member. The only thing I don't like about them is that they are about 3" lower than I would like.
