Title: Headers for a lowered c-10
Post by: Tyrfryer on March 19, 2006, 04:24:00 am

Hi everyone, I've been lurking here for a while.  I have been looking for some info on what headers work the best on a lowered 82 c-10 swb I recently purchased. I have a complete air suspension I would like to put on so clearance is a major issue!  I will also be putting on a full dual 2.5 exhaust.  will I sacrifice much hp/tq if I decide to use the hedman shorty elite headers compared to a full length header?  I have been reading here about a dynomax header for a chevelle and have tried numerous searches for a part # and can't seem  to find it.  Any one who has used these I would love to hear your experiences and or pics.  I am also planing a ls1/t-56 swap next winter or spring.

Thanks

i have some hedman shorty headers meant for a carlo...they tuck very nice, and the pipes tuck higher than the frame

The ones you want are 3/4 lenght for a Chevelle.  This is the PN for the black coated ones:  WLK-85118

the 3/4 length chris suggested may work fine,don't know..but long,full length chevelle or camaro headers won't clear the floor,I've tried'em both at one time or another..
