Kooks Headers

Recommended Posts

Has anyone thought about or has installed a set of #6500 or #6501 Kooks longtube headers for LS1 Camero/Firebird on their SSS? Would they fit? Then doing a custom built exhaust from the collectors back. Was wondering this since Kooks doesn't list a set of LT's for the SS. Also what about the LT's they make for the TBSS & SSR? I thought since these were for applications that were tighter in the engine compartment than the SSS that they might work? Thanks for the input guys.

Any chance I could get a picture or two of your exhaust setup? I'm trying to ge some ideas. Did you run the pipes on each side of the transmission over the crossmember, instead of both on the passenger side like stock? Thanks.

dont think i have the pics anymore. i ran the driverside pipe down along the trans and over the xmember and turned at the tailshaft. when it turned it ran into the X then lenght of magnapaks then exited the side of truck in front of rear tire. you might be able to search my name and look for the thread. not sure if i took pics down or not

I didn't find the pics. I did find an old post of yours. You were talking about how the driver side collector was angled towards the frame? How close is the end of the collector from the frame? What about the passenger side, does it do the same or does it run even with the frame? How far is the end of the collector from the trans crossmember? That's the main area I would like to see a picture of, the collector area. Thanks.

Man I hope so, atleast some 1 7/8s. A 2" header with 3.5 collector would be awesome for larger cubed motors and big FI set-ups.
