I have a 305 with power pulleys, k&n air filter and flow master exhaust.

Do you Know a 5.7 350 is a small block. just like a 5.0 305. The way you asked that question I would think all 5.7 come automatic that would suck

Not in 88-95..........................

Im sorry your truck is an automatic. I cant believe you cant get a 5.7 in a standard 5 speed. :LOL: altough he says you can on the pre 99.

You could get a 5.7 with a 5-speed till the new boy style came out.

No need for long tubes. And as far as I know there is no Y-pipe availible for those trucks w/ long tubes. I will be a custom set-up if you choise to go that route.

A bit of clarification on a couple of things.

LaPole has Y-pipes available for all of the headers he sells. In fact he has a complete header to tip kit, including a MagnaFlow muffler, for most of them. Installation requires a lot of cutting and welding on the Ypipe to get the Cats in the right place, but they are CARB approved in CA..

Headers only requires some modification as SSHOTRODSCOM discovered.

I think the complete kit, engine to tip is about $1000.00 and well worth the money.
