80 C10 350 diesel to 454 swap. Headers question?
« on: December 26, 2013, 02:58:15 pm »
Hi! I'm building my first truck. Want to build street truck. 454 with 100-150hp NOS.
Now It's old farm truck: 1980 Chevrolet C10 LWB with 350 diesel imported to Russia from Finland.



I've just bought 454 with th400 from '70 chevelle. I would like 4" drop in front. What headers should I use?

Thank you in advance,
Denis.

I have been real happy with my Hooker Competition series headers on my 454.

If you look in their catalog for the 2wd application the 4" drop shouldn't be a problem.
