No they are SBC headers, I’m using a forged piston and rod 360 inch Chevy 350.

Those look great. I might just try and talk with a few companies first. Thanks to who replied

I did send Doug Thorley exhaust an email the other day for LT.

I have Gibson stainless GP102S headers on my 1998 C1500 5.7 ext cab. Heartily recommend.

I have the BBK 40070 headers and I like the looks, but then I never go for the standard looks. I also have no need for long tubes, just headers where I can hook all the things back up like the factory manifolds.

Back in my 5.0 fox mustang days I ran BBK equal length shortys, with a Mac Pro-chamber and bassani mufflers, it had a truly wicked sound.

Anyways, yes bbk is a good brand.

Doug Thorley never got back. Was going to roll the dice and try BBK. Checked back here and a few more positive replies on BBK Headers. Thanks for all the replies. I'm somewhat surprised there are not more folks that run the BBK for these trucks. I understand that LT's are twice as good and better bang for the buck. Considering fitment, clearance, guessing what will work without cutting and hammering, using egr or they slide right in . With only a cam, minor head work and a tune it's not a big deal for my setup. I'm not looking for maximum power gains. Just a decent bump in tourqe to get the truck out of its own way. We decided on 2.5" duels with X-pipe, magnaflow metalic cats and 4" round magnaflow straight threw mufflers. The BBK will have V-bands with another set of V-bands somewhere down the line for future disassembly. It will dump under the truck somewhere in the rear. I will post some pictures and replies later. Thanks again

You can use TBI GMT400 long tubes. Add a bung for the second O2 sensor and block off the EGR.
It's what I did on my 98.

Do you have to delete EGR in the tune for it to run without throwing codes?

I sent Doug Thorley an email 6 months ago. Here's what they said.

"Thank you for your interest in Doug Thorley Headers! Unfortunately, based on the information given, we do not have any headers available for your year, make, and model and had discontinued them a while back. Since our production demand is very high at this time, we are unfortunately also unable to make any custom headers. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and we wish you the best of luck in your header search!"
