shorty headers
78rustbucket:
hey, im looking around for some shorty type headers for my 84 2wd, and pondering my options. i tried this adventure before with my 78 c10 and bought some flowtech shortys meant for 88+ trucks that ended up returning for full lenth headers cause the drivers header went inside the frame rail. i see alot of 82-92 fbody headers on ebay and wondered if anyones tried them on a c10?

Block huggers will work, not sure about F-body ones though. What exactly are you trying to do, keep them from hanging low? Chris Lucas

yeah basically want them just for extra clearance after i lower it, itd be fine with full lenth, but the engineers at the plant i work at must of assumed everyone drove hummers when they went overkill building the speedbumps all over the parking lot. to be honest ive never lowered any of my trucks so im not even sure if the headers dragging would be an issue.... just kinda looks like it would be

In that case I would suggest getting Dynomax headers for a Chevelle. They tuck up higher and out of the way. I posted the Part number somewhere but can't find it. Chris Lucas

I ran Headman shorties but had sealing issues. Changed them out for Flowtech direct fit for a 92 chevy TBI engine. Work great. You will need an exhaust shop to custom bend the down pipes for the reason posted eariler. The driver side header points towards the frame and requires the correct bend to clear the frame. I will keep these headers until they rust away. They are the best ones I have owned yet.
