Does anyone know of or are running headers in an obs 4x4? I know you can find them for the 2wd but ive looked and looked and for the life of me cant find any for 4wd. I know the obs has tighter frame rails so i dont think headers for newer 4wd will work. Anybody fabbed there own? swappin in a 6.0 andlike to get as much out of the way as possible. trucks a 92 rcsb 4wd.
I've been looking myself, I'm in the middle of my swap. The most I have found is NITROUS a member on hear was gonna be making the only long tubes to fit our obs 4x4s. But he kinda disappeared I think I have messaged him with no reply. I was told s&p may have a mid length to fit? But I haven't done any checking
I figured thats how it would be-either mids or fab your own. Im kinda more budget oriented right now anyway so i guess ill use these ugly manifolds unless sombody else chimes in.
I was kinda hoping someone would chime in too. But oh well, if there was some available I probably would have found them or heard about em by now. I think us guys are just playing the waiting game
schoenfield makes headers for 88-98 LS motor swaps,but i believe they only work for 2wd trucks. might want to try and search if 99-06 silverado headers work.
I bought schoenfields for my 92 k1500. I ended up having to modify the driver header to fit otherwise it will be right in the way of the front driveshaft.
How much modifying did it take to make em work? Can you post pics?Quote:

So the passenger side cleared the frame? Doesnt look like too much work to get that driver side to work and 250 a set is worth a shot. Thanks!
If that's all it takes then why doesn't Shoenfield offer them?
you cant expect to have everything made for swaps like this. just remember that motor doesent belong on that truck. lucky they even offer headers for that price. for my 82 c10 LS swap the headers cost $700 for LTs that sucks. i have to mod some camaro headers. hey you never know schoenfield might offer them in the future.Quote:

Well thanks for the info coastsidekid! Looks like I have something to play with
