I am interested in some front mount turbo headers. Does anyone make them for a gen III? Perhaps LS turbo headers could be modified to work?

Thanks for any advice!!

There's nothing off the shelf available. I have seen some adapters before to run LS headers but not sure how well the headers would package in an actual car. You're probably going to have to end up building a set, not too big of a deal.

6.4 Jeep SRT manifolds are a nice swoopy cast iron manifold if they'll fit

Got the motor in my 69 b body and the steering box appears to be right in the way for any exhaust

manual or power? Considering lsx style vehicles have rack and pinion, I'm not surprised. I know the headers in my trans am wouldn't work with those adapters.
