Re: 1985 GMC 4x4 LS Motor Swap, tons of pics!

This is like a dream forum for someone who is looking for complete documentation of an LS swap into a K10--especially for someone who stubbornly insists on using long tube headers. Thank you. Also, my condolences on the loss of this truck. It is my greatest fear that something like that will happen once I finish my truck.

I have done some EXTENSIVE research trying to find a set of long tube headers that, even thought they SAY they are K10 swap headers, will actually fit. I find it kind of funny that probably the best option I found were Camaro headers. It seems like no matter which set of long tubes I get, there will need to be some sort of modification done (how hard is it to make headers that fit the vehicle they are supposed to??), and the headers you used seem like they will be the easiest and best long term.

So my question is, do you remember what brand your headers were? I am tentative to purchase Camaro headers for my K10 blindly, being that K10 specific headers all seem to each have their own unique issue. I found two options that appear to be the same; KOSpeed and blackhorse racing. They both look the same, but might be slightly different bends. Which of these two looks like the safest bet? Any info or advice is greatly appreciated.
