Hey bud, could you check shipping for me to 39401?

Oh yeah and what's the flange thickness and tube sizes?

 

[thatK30guy]

Head flange is 1/2" thick.

Collector flange is 7/16" thick.

Tube o.d. is 1.5" diameter.

Not sure on the tubes material thickness.

Shipping quote will come as soon as I find a box to fit them in.

Those look like Gibson headers for 88-95 chevy truck. If I hadn't recently bought a new set I would be all over these.

Will they fit 73-87 pickups?
If so Im interested.

I was told they would but you'd have to notch a part of the frame. Not sure if it was the top, bottom or both.

The passenger side fits without any issues, the driver side will require a small amount of grinding on the upper portion of the frame rail (1/4" at most) AND you'll have to plug the 02 sensor port (I used an oil pan drain plug with a steel crush washer and tightened it really good then cut the head of the drain plug off so it was only about 1/8" thick flange that was left). If you need an 02 sensor I then installed an 02 bung just below the collector flange on the exhaust pipe at the rear side of the pipe.

Do you think there is a big power loss?
I'd like to ditch my rusty full-length headers.

Scott, whats the difference in the manifold/header bolting pattern between the '95 and '96 year split? I know '96 began the Vortecs so I immediately thought the bolt pattern must be different?

The exhaust bot pattern is all the same from 1955-1999 (until the LS series came out anyway whatever year that was).

Then why won't these headers work on newer trucks? I checked the Gibson site and the part numbers are different between '95 and '96.

It is probably a chassis issue as they don't directly fit 87-earlier either BUT with the slight mod I said they will work on the 87-earlier chassis.

One more shot and then listing it on eVilbay...

Does the passenger side header have the chimney pipe hole for cold starts?

No, you have to cut a small piece of exhaust pipe and either weld or clamp it to one of the header tubes.
