G'day,

I'm doing a bit of research and would like to know:

1) Who has headers on their Caddy 500 powered GMC?
2) Where were they purchased?
3) How much were they?
4) Did they have to make any modifications to make them fit?
5) Can you get the transmission governor out without removing the driver side?

AFAIK The Cad Co in Albuquerque, NM is the only company that makes headers for the Caddy?

GMC Motorhomes (FWD) (mandrel bent) $795
GMC Motorhomes (FWD) (non-mandrel bent) $595
These fit in most Cadillac engine swaps into the 70s Olds-powered GMC FWD Motor Homes.
Designed for use with our bolt-in motor mount kit, but for other swaps as well.
These headers are hand built, and Mig welded, not mass produced.
If your transmission dipstick tube support bracket uses an exhaust manifold bolt, you will have to modify the bracket to fit.
