For those that are interested, I have posted pics of a set of headers for the Cadillac 500 installed in a GMCMH. These headers are bent using a standard exhaust tube bender.

The following photos are from Russ Harms and are Cad 500 headers...Mandrel bent.

Larry,

Thanks!

Considering the RPM's the Caddy runs at in a GMC I reckon the standard ones will work just fine.

Regards,
Rob

Plus, I'd hate to try to get those "mandrel bent"
headers to seal to the heads!

The bolting for the Cad exhaust is considerably better than the
Olds.you have almost twice as many at places that help seal.
