04-07 CTS-V pacesetter longtube headers

Would they work on a 5.3 lsx swap in a 85 cutlass? I know the 98-02 fbody's do just didn't know if these would fit as i can get em for a good price

If you can get them for a good price I say get them and see how they fit. If you have a hammer you can make some extra room. The guys at Hot Rod magazine proved that you won't lose power on dyno by denting headers for clearance. You could do a write up on your experience and let others know if it would be an option for them. I haven't heard of anyone else trying it before, so you could be the first.

True, thanks for the link and suggestion

No problem. I know I am interested to hear how they work out for you if you get them. I still haven't purchased headers for my swap yet an I was tenatively planning on getting the TSP 98-02 Camaro stainless headers. It might take less work for the cts-v headers? Somebody has to be a pioneer. Haha.

Just fyi I found some fbody pacesetters for almost as cheap and went with them instead

Good luck. Hope they don't give you any headaches.
