Default Doug THorley Sidepipes

Doug Thorley chrome headers and sidepipes. 1 7/8" tubing to a 4" collector and 4" sidepipes that are 55" long. The model number on the flange is 949

Will these sidepipes fit my 1980 L48, and what are they worth

i believe those are for a big block, and an L-48 is by no means a big block :lol:

i could be wrong though

Flange looks like small block ... seller says for small block ... seller says for Camaro. Dunno if it'll fit a shark.

Camaro headers - or header sides - will not fit a C3 vette

Yea those are defineatly for a small block, bet there is no way those will fit a shark. look at the hooker side pipes that are made for sharks, and you can see the diffrence.

Those are Thorleys?

I thought he makes all his stuff in the "Tri-Y" design. Tham ain't Tri-Y, buddy.
