Hey,
I was wondering if Hedman long tube headers off of a 1990 suburban 5.7l tbi will work on my 1996 k1500 5.7l vortec? I know i have to weld in the 02 bungs and all but will the fitment be right or not?

Thanks
Greg

Not sure if they'll clear the 4wd components, but even if they do you still have the EGR tube on the driver's bank to contend with. Simply plugging it will still cause issues with the tune when the system is expecting EGR flow at cruise.

1990 'Burban is same as a 73-87 Pickup, wont fit without some modification. no means a bolt on swap.

That's right, it was still a square body. Right then, not working without major modifications.
