    you need to be more specfic, i guess since this is ls1truck.com your looking for headers for an LS swaped 85 gmc. if so you just want them to drop in without notching the frame,gonna have to pay about $700 for the brphotrods headers http://www.brphotrods.com/mm5/mercha...ory_Code=CNV10 or you can try the schoenfeld headers for 88-98 silverado ls1 swap headers alot cheaper and worth the try. f-body headers work also just need to cut the ds collector and weld it straight.

    to my knowledge no one makes LS swap headers for 80s c10 trucks, besides brphotrods. if there not an option gonna have to get some made or mod some existing headers. im gonna get the schoenfeld headers heard they work and are only $250

    Proof positive that not all headers are created the same.
