B18c w/ LS header or GSR?? HELP !

[GuilioG]

i have a B18c in my '94 Ls i already talked to a customer service rep from Skunk2 about which header to use. he said the gsr header and when i get the high flow cat welded on alittle custome work may need to be done as well. i was under the impression i would have to use a Ls header to fit up everything. so let the debate begin guys and if your pulling stuff out of your *ss dont post please. thanks guys :cheers:

Its either the bolt pattern is different, or the gsr header is shorter than the LS and you would have to extend it a little. I think it is just the length issue

GSR motor=GSR Header.:goodjob:

yeah that what i was thinking as well guys. gsr header is shorter than ls that what i have heard the most of. bolt patern pretty much looks the same

not necessarily true. It all depends on what catback he has on the car. The GSR header is shorter, but a GSR catback itself is longer to make up for it. If the catback on the car is a type R or LS/GS catback, use a type R header. If the catback is for a GSR, use the GSR header. Also, the stock catback on a 94-99 GSR is different than the 00-01. The 00-01 catback is the same length as the type R. Since the car is a LS with a B18C1 swap, just use a type R header or a LS header.

Just make sure you don't waste money on a DC or skunk2 header. They fvcking blow. At the minimum get a jdm 2.5" collector jdm type R header. For the best bang for your buck, Email Mr. Kidd and ask him about one of his hytech replica headers. Seriously, don't waste your money on a DC or skunk2 header. You may pick up 2-3 whp with one of those. Mr. Kidd's headers are under $300 shipped and have been proven to make like 10whp more than the DC 4-1 jdm style header.

here's a link to Mr. Kidd's headers. He can tell you exactly what you need. He is pretty much an expert on B series setups, and held (or may still hold) the N/A B series whp record for GA.

vteckidd's header is made for all b-series, meaning its only one type but will work with all. Only thing you will need is a test pipe to make it work with your catback, which he carrys also for $80 and its fully adjustable which saves you the pain of install. pm him
