Who out there is a LT1 "expert." I'm getting ready to install one in my '50 3100. I would like to install headers for the "cool" factor... I don't care whether they increase performance or not. I know the history of the engine...got it on the cheap. Without any research at this time, what issues will I encounter by doing so? That question comes about due to the factory "plumbing" that is attached to the exhaust manifolds. I would like to eliminate as much as possible any or all of the stock connections without disturbing engine performance. I'm not going as far as removing the opti-spark in favor of a conventional distributor. Hey, just throwing the question out there...If I didn't ask I wouldn't know.
