I don't have one handy. I was hoping someone might post one. I think CPP as well as others offer the kit.

Your right.


I found these headers at Super Chevy today for a good price. They are Headman 69648 fits 88-95 chevy trucks. I thought I would try them. They are very similar to the Flowtech 31505 FLT headers I was going to try. I could sell them and get my money back if the weren't close to fitting. The right side that I was concerned that wouldn't fit didn't have any issues to speak of. Once I put the gasket in it will rub the frame on one tube.



In able to make these studs work I needed to cut some more threads so I could put a nut for the headers. I also need to cut the flange off of the flange nut that is hitting the header. I also need to shorten the stud to ease installation.







The side I thought would fit has some issues. I don't know if I should grind about a 1/4" off of the frame around 3 of the tubes or not. I'm thinking of making them work. What do ya'll think?



The left header has an O2 sensor bung that is blocked off.



Here are some other things I picked up
1. Door inner/outer belt mouldings
2. Door wing window seals w/rivets and tool
3. Door glass run weatherstrip
4. Door wing window latches
5. Door O/S handles and lock cylinder not pictured
6. Jegs mini starter

I will be doing a how too on rebuilding the vent window assy once I figure it out.
