Default Header picture request

Would like to see some pics of headers (not sidepipes). Preferably from underneath and the side. I would like to see how low they hang and where they hang. I have a set of LS1 camaro headers and would like to compare them to real C3 headers.

Well I have the $86 summit long tube headers and I can tell you this. My starter is still alive, they fit very well, and I have yet to hit anything with them.

These are both small block 4 speed C3's. No starter problems or any clearance issues at all.

Dynomax Headers


Hooker headers

That's a very appealing price! But do they rust out after just 5 minutes?

Thanks for the pictures. I need to test fit my LS1 headers and hope to do it in the next week or so.

One question for you guys. It looks like the pipes coming off the headers actually hang under the floorboard. Is that right?

I was trying to keep the pipes inside the trans tunnel, but I see C3 headers aren't like that.
