Ls manifolds/ headers
I have a 72 c10 frame with 6.0 /4l80e combo sitting in it. I used ingenuity fab and speed 67-72 mount and crossmember kit. Does anyone know what manifolds or headers will clear and not interefere with dipstick tube or spark plug wires?

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
Trailblazer SS Should fit they also made a TB without the SS that had a 5.3 that carries same manifolds. They are still available new. Jim

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
2010 Camaro manifolds with heat shields removed and smoothed up
will be sending them to be jet coated soon plenty of clearance and years of leak-free, trouble-free operation on 2001 5.7 LS1 Transmission and oil level dipstick fit perfectly

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
Speed Engineering long tubes is what I am running with the same set up. I'm sitting on POL engine stands, but you won't have issues. You will have to trim the ears on your transmission bell housing. You can look in my build thread to see them.

I used the Hooker Cast Iron headers/manifolds in the pictures below on my '67 Panel Truck with an LS1. Cleared everything with no problem. I bought them off of E-bay. It looks like these might be about the same and on sale.. https://www.holley.com/products/exha...st%20Manifolds You have to watch that price. That is per manifold. I don't think I have ever seen anyone sell them one at a time....... Any way it automatically added 2 to my cart. Dunno. LockDoc

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
I used the S/S headers for a late model Camaro.
Here is a link with them and some others. "Stainless Work Headers" http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=695713

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
Not the greatest pictures, but all I have on my work PC. If you need to see anything else let me know. I'll look for a shot of the trans where the header goes by.

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
Larry, here is what I have.
https://www.speed-engineering.com/ls...2-ls3-ls6.html The ear on the passenger side of the 4L80e has to be trimmed down to clear the long tube header. If you go with the shorty header in your link then you don't need to modify the transmission.

Re: Ls manifolds/ headers
I used Speed Engineering's shorty headers with my 6.0/4L80 combination and had to trim the ears on the trans.
