Thanks for taking them.
Were there any other fit issues besides the a/c compressor? Where is that kit available from?
Man, that looks good in there. I can't wait to start on mine. Is Kyle going to stick with the cast headers or go with a tube header? It looks to be a nice fit with the stock ones. Will a tube header create any clearance problems.
The other post with the drop member in the C-10 has tube headers and I don't think there were any fit issues there so probably just whichever I want to use, right?

The cast headers will be changed over to a tube style at a later date. The Passenger side manifold fits nicley, but the driver's side has some clearance issues at the frame. The frame needs to be notched and then re-inforced for clearance. We will be starting on another Dropmember install on a 71 Blazer shortly. It too will have an LS motor. I have a couple different style of headers to try on it. It will be a Dropmember C4.
The SBC 350 in the C10 has tube headers that fit very nicely. The ones used on Dino's 66 are a Hooker 'universal shorty' for 60's- 94 SBC. I can post up the part number if wanted.
The a/c kit comes from Street and Performance... I am a dealer for them. They also sell the accessory kit for the alternator and p/s pump as well. A little on the spendy side, but very, very nice.
