Guest GMoney Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I have started to buy stuff for my turbo 4.8 truck build. Does anyone have a set of junk LS heads that I can use for mock up? I want to make sure that I can clear the spark plug with my manifolds and use the head for a heat soak so that I don't warp the flanges. I want keep them very tight to the head and clearances will be tight. I used my Solidworks to model up the manifolds. Only have to grind on 6 parts to make everything work, everything else is just buy, tack in place and finish weld. These should clear everything, A/C, heater lines and even the PS. I will even be keeping the mechanical fan. http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w404/Flak_Jacket/Drivers%20Header_zpsu5tkky8g.jpg http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w404/Flak_Jacket/Passenger%20Header_zpslcm0g2fv.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Side not do you still need g8 manifolds? I'm changing my setup and won't need them any longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GMoney Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Side not do you still need g8 manifolds? I'm changing my setup and won't need them any longer No I do not. Did a ton of measuring and can't figure out how to keep ac and use a flipped manifold. I already bought all the materials for the manifolds and they are at the house. http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w404/Flak_Jacket/image.jpg1_zpslcjex2pl.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were just talking about doing a single? Nope only 6. It is going to be a single kit. V-banding the crossover. Someone has to have a damaged head they would let me borrow or buy for the scrap value. I only need just one. $80 shipped of ebay might be the only way to go?
