Re: Will these fit?
Not to be a dick but this has been asked 1,000,000 times. Those will not work. Your only options are sw headers, 4th and 5th gen stock manifolds, and 4th and 5th gen shorty headers.
edit: you can get 3rd gen sbc hearders and mod them with ls header flanges.

Re: Will these fit?
no problem, but the reason im asking is because is there anything we could fab up to make tem work? i guess im asking why dont they fit, if someone could answer that for me i would be happy, but i can make anything fit, just need to know why they dont, what makes them so different? thanks for the reply

Re: Will these fit?
im in the same boat with ya. Im going to be using stock f body manifolds for now. I plan on buying some long tube sbc headers for my car and getting some ls1 flanges and start hacking them up.
