Can anyone confirm if the Headers sold in the kit hang below the frame rails? In the pictures it looks pretty close but hard to say for sure. If they do hang lower is there any fitment issues with using other brands of shorties or midlength headers hitting the mounts at all?

The headers do not drop below the bottom of the frame at all. I can't say if any other headers will fit with the Hooker engine brackets.

Now that's what I call service! Awesome, Thanks a lot.

As for the engine brackets I don't think I was clear on what I mean't, Sorry. I was referring to the engine mounts that are sold in the 2334K1 Kit.

That kit number you posted is something the Jeg's packages and sells on its own, but going off of the image of the components on their website, they are the Hooker GM truck engine mounts (12621HKR) I had in mind when I gave my answer as to the fitment of non-Hooker headers.

Any more info on the dual tank setup on the red truck?

wondering if an 87+ blazer tank will work with the 3in exhaust.

Hope to have my LY6 6.0 on a test stand soon. Where is everybody ordering the Holley parts from? Haven't really found the swap parts cheaper than holley.com??

Todd,

While I remember you posting somewhere (ls1tech maybe) you had developed the mounts for the LT power train in the 73 - 87 trucks, I have been struggling to find them on the Holley website. There is no reference to the LT in the products section.

Would you be able to provide a link or part numbers?

Thank you!

Hello Doug. Holley has not designed LT swap engine brackets for the 73-87 GM truck applications at this time, only LS swap engine brackets.

OK, thank you Todd. That explains why I can’t find them. It must have been another application. Really appreciate your quick response.

Are they on your “To Do” list? I was thinking they had been developed based on post 79 in 87Chevy.com LT swap...http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=712571&page=4

Also, the Holley mid mount accessory drive system is on my purchase list for my 48 Burb. Really appreciate the product support you guys are providing!
