First time posting. I have been lurking and searching for info on my 1997 C2500 2wd ECSB 5.7 Vortec. Thanks to everyone who post and gives end results on the outcome. That being said. I'm wanting to replace my current exhaust system. I have true duels with 14 year old 40 series Flowmasters and oem clogged cats. Truck has upgraded fuel injection, fuel pump, filter, dizzy, crank sensor, plugs, wires, maf, coil, icm, purg, tps, etc all with in the last 8 months. Going to do some head work, cam and tune package soon. New exhaust will be 2.5" with magnaflow high flow cats, 2 magnaflow magnapack type mufflers dumped somewhere underneath. It's not a daily driver so mpg isn't a concern. I don't have emissions to worry about but I want to leave emissions fully intact for now.
I have been searching for exhaust headers. First it was long tube. Seems like there are fitment issues and few options for the Vortec. I'm past that option now. Shorty headers is what I'm going with. I wasted money building on this truck already so another $700 won't follow me to the grave, oh well. My question after all that is. Does anyone run the BBK shorty headers for the Vortec engine? I have searched for reviews, not much out there.
