63 c10 4.8 LS swap
So I've been a lurker on this of forum for a little while, been gathering info on this build and putting it to good use. Thank you for that.
Issue that we have come to is that we are using the dirty dingo motor mounts for are build, but have came to an issue with the headers fitting correctly. We are using the stock truck headers...any help on what to do? I've read that fbody will fit but haven't seen anyone do it with DD mounts |

Re: 63 c10 4.8 LS swap
Stock LS manifolds just won't work without cutting up your frame, TBSS manifolds work well and hooker has some shorties that work very well. These are budget ideas, you can go with Doug Thorley long tubes if you have the $

Re: 63 c10 4.8 LS swap
For the hooker headers is there a.specific thing to search for? Do I look up the donor truck or the c10...sorry for the noob question just tried searching and couldn't find so I'm thinking on doing it wrong
