Plans on making something for manual transmission? or do you know of a solution for the linkage issue?

Thanks

**Jokers69** · 12-06-2008, 05:26 PM

Nothing for BB yet and the only way we found to deal with the manual linkage issue was to convert it to hydraulic system.

larry may your headers are on the way.

Any luck with the LS flanges?

**Jokers69** · 12-10-2008, 10:50 PM

There is no way it can be done with the template we built. We would have to have a truck with that motor setup in it.

LuckyHenriksen · 12-10-2008, 11:14 PM

Ok cool just checkin

**Jokers69** · 12-14-2008, 02:45 PM

They do fit 4X4 automatic thanks 67ZL1 for test fitting them for us.

2wd73blazer · 12-15-2008, 12:56 AM

Look like nice headers. I could use a set for BB if you decide to make some.

Arad68 · 12-15-2008, 11:30 AM

Would there be any problem with vintage air A/C?

**Jokers69** · 12-15-2008, 10:54 PM

I'm not sure. I'll look in to it. Does Vintage Air use a bracket off the exhaust bolts to hold the compressor?

local13hutch · 12-16-2008, 11:17 AM

I was wondering if these will work with angled plug heads.

**Jokers69** · 12-17-2008, 12:32 PM

I'm pretty sure they will with 90 degree boot, short header plugs and running the wires in the factory location. I will look in to this and let you know.

**Jokers69** · 12-19-2008, 01:27 PM

it depends on which brackets you getr from Vintage Air..

the Steel-Eez brackets mount off the exhaust manifold

but if you opt for the alan grove brackets they dont come off the manifold.

but every kit ove seen on our teucks mounts off the manifold, haent seen one with the alan grove brackets yet

Wootdog · 12-22-2008, 07:44 PM

How about for a LT1 in a 67 C10 with a 4L60E automatic transmission? No matter what I do, I can't get the headers to not leak I have installed. They leak on both sides out of the flanges that bolt to the aluminum heads.

**Jokers69** · 12-22-2008, 11:17 PM

They should fit your truck with no problems. Just have to use lokar transmission linkage.

**Jokers69** · 12-28-2008, 10:28 PM

The shop that makes them has said $75.00 off for a limited time.

71cadc10 · 12-31-2008, 11:58 AM

Man, I second on the gen III flange. Wish I lived closer you could use mine for template.

kcjones · 01-06-2009, 01:11 PM

I will get some as soon as finances allow. I would want either the 1 3/4 primary uncoated or 1 3/4 coated, can't afford the expense of the stainless. Non-stainless still available, right? 3.0 inch collector?

**Jokers69** · 01-06-2009, 01:55 PM

Yes non-stainless are still available and they have 3 inch collectors.

**Jokers69** · 01-10-2009, 10:09 PM

Still on sale any takers?

**special-K** · 01-10-2009, 10:17 PM

These look like they`ll work with manual trans.Did you figure for that?(I hope

**Jokers69** · 01-11-2009, 04:10 PM

They will not work on manual transmisson with factory clutch linkage
