PERFECT FIT! they are not long tube nor shortys but rather dump out along side of the bell housing. There are many new sets on ebay for pretty fair money. Just thought some of you might want to know! | | | | | Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 1,067 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 1,067 | What did you have to do with your stock steering?

I have my engine about ready to sit it down in my chassis and I've follow "header" post ever since I started. There are some that will work but from what I read some work better than others...with steering box in original position.
I like the part about "fair money" and if you can tell us the details we may be able to go to the junk yard and find the exact headers for mine. I sure would like all the details.
Honestly I did not know that a set of STAINLESS headers were made for an 88-95 truck! (What size/kind of truck.
Details PLEASE.
Thanks | | | | | Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 34 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 34 | the ones I got are of course an aftermarket performance header that were built to fit the 88- 95 chevy trucks with a 305 or a 350 engine. It did not say whether for a half or a 3/4 ton or even if it would matter. I am by the way using a different chassis now so this idea may not work for everyone but I thought id share the idea with you guys out there. ill take some pics and get them posted. these are easily found for under 200 on ebay. I pretty much knew my trouble areas trying to fit other headers then saw these and saw no reason they would'nt work for me. All of the performance parts catalogs offer similar as well. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Thanks for the info/update. | | |
