Headers for GMT with a big block?

[Justin S]

I'm working on an engine swap for my 93 C1500, going with a 496 big block, and I was wondering if anyone who has a 454 or other big block has swapped to headers, and if so what brand and part number if you remember worked for you? I was looking on Summit, and it shows that Hooker has part number HOK-2461HKR. I looked at the reviews, and one person said it fit on an 89, but then another said it didn't fit their 92. Obviously both should be the same, but i'm just curious if anyone has done this. Thanks!

I believe those are called "zoomie headers" right? You could even just buy shorty block hugger headers and run them straight up

Zoomies dump out both sides and each cylinder had its own pipe.

X2. I wonder if you could consider no headers/manifolds to be MEGA zoomies?

EDIT - Timestamp didn't work, the real fun starts around 2:19.

Yeah, it's a shame he's such a troubled dude. He had one of the most entertaining YouTube channels I've ever seen.
