Do they make a 2" or bigger primary tube header for a K10? The largest I found was 1 3/4".

My buddy just got a set with 2 1/4 primaries, 4"collector. I remember that because his primaries are the same size as my exhaust tubing 
He got them at a swap meet, they're called purple something or others. I'll ask if I see him

Iirc Stahl makes big tube headers for our trucks.

I think that's it, I thought that was a muffler for some reason and didn't want to say it.
Hooker SuperComps come in a 2" primary with a 3.5" collector.
Part numbers are buried somewhere in my build thread, but you should be able to find it with search...
I think it might be a Chevelle application, but it seems to work pretty well on trucks too.

Power Pro and Fab Shop both make a large tube header . I have a set of the Fab Shop 2.25 primaries and a 4 inch collectors. They are fenderwell headers though .
I have 2 1/8" primary 3.5" collector on my chevelle, but they are a 2 piece header. The 2" ones I had were 1 piece.
The bigger question is why? A 1 3/4" primary is good for a BBC in a truck application but you should leave the 2" + for race cars.

People like the extra volume for gas expansion, for the rumble. That's all I got
Why do people do 3" true duals on stock small blocks? It's because of the way it sounds, and partially the looks. I doubt anyone running this setup has much backpressure
He could be racing it, not every truck grts driven to Walmart.

The truck is used for mud and sand drags. The motor is a 505 stroker.
Ha! I knew it. You are one of those Potterville guys that I hear about. Are you going to have your rig going this year? I take it you must race at Lemoore and Avenal

we raced all season in the mud drags/bogs at Rocky Hill Speedway here in Porterville. We are gonna start sand drags and continue the mud drags/bogs this season.
