Just curious, would a stock C5 corvette exhaust manifold bolt up to my 350? I've found that they are really cheap and would flow WAY better than my stock manifold. would they flow better than a set of shorties? or would i be wasting my time and money?

 | no sir, they won't bolt up... the LS1/LS2/LS6 manifolds have a different pattern and lengths...
and as they do flow well, you're still better off in your car with shorties vs. any manifolds. |

Aaron is right...
look at the spacing on the exhaust manifolds, it alternates E/I/E/I/E/I/E
A Small block Chevy is: E/I/I/E/E/I/I/E
*key:
E--Exhaust port
I--Intake Port
Mark IV and Gen VI Chevy big blocks have the same port pattern as the LSx motors. _________________
