3rd gen V8 headers. Were you thinking of short or long tube?

The bigger primary tube headers tend to fit around the LT1 ports. 1-3/4" are best for this purpose. Check with TGO member Dyno Don about his headers.

I think that only applies to LT1 aluminum heads... Iron heads I don't think got the D-ports. I could be wrong on that though.

Either way... the LT1 uses a regular SBC header like any 3rdgen V8 would.
