These KE, now known as Diamond Lighting headers.(manifolds)
I currently have the new Diamond Performance ones in silver. Diamond did a good job cleaning up the look with redoing the molds.

remove spark plugs. install two temporary 3/8 studs(cut the head off a 3' bolt). slip on gasket, slip on manifold,( it will not slip off studs once pushed up to head). install bolts. Remove studs. install bolts. install plugs and wires.
enjoy the compliments of having a different, cool sounding boat.

I think he is probably talking about regular Lightning tubular headers.
Your'e going to need the right length header bolts or studs.
Use a gasket like this for ease of install http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sc...make/chevrolet

Hey Griff, do you know for sure I will need longer studs on a 502 EFI? If so, what is the part number. And thanks for the heads up on the gaskets. They are ordered and have been delivered.
