Exhaust Design LS conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**paul mora** · 01-02-2018, 04:12 PM

I have 2006 6.0 I am installing in a suburban and a Blazer build I have not started. I have one set of stock exhaust that was on the 6.0 and a set so Sanderson headers that I have mocked up on the Suburban. I want to save the headers for the Blazer and use the stock exhaust on the Suburban.

I would like to coat the stock exhaust with a high temp coating and run them without the heat shields .

Does anyone see anything wrong with the exhaust plan, with the fit or no heat shields.

Stock truck manifolds usually do not fit without cutting the framerails. F-body, trailblazer SS, or Camaro LS3 are known to fit. Hooker or CPP exhaust manifolds also fit well, but are slightly more expensive

I have two set one might be Camaro. Does any know the difference based on the part number stramped on the side

Top is a truck manifold, bottom is Camaro LS3

Will the Camaro work without cutting the frame and leaving the heat shields off

Yes, they are a known good fit
