Default TT LS1 headers for 1969 Camaro

Does anyone sell a set of twin turbo headers for a LS1 going into a 69 Camaro? I do not want to spend the $7500 minimum that Nelson Racing Engines sells. I can't afford that...any pics or ideas where to go for such a thing would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!

his headers aren't that much, for that price you also get two turbos and two wastegates.

more pics. Also, pretty sure that at $7500 you get a pair of turbos and pair of wastegates, so all you need to do is plumb the exhaust downpipes and intake plumbing. His headers fit most early chassis setup with the LS engines.

Thanks Jody for the pics and info. I have to agree with TT LS2 at i recall as well Tom advertising "twin turbo headers" for 7500 bucks. Not with turbos and gates too. Now i think its really sweet deal. Toms fabricating is best i have seen so far

well, as I recall he told me $7500-$8K with turbos and wastegates, so I'm guessing that's right. I'll get an answer from Tom.

Here it is on his site:

NELSON TURBO KIT 1

2 CUSTOM DESIGNED TURBO CHARGERS
2 - 44MM V BAND TIAL WASTEGATES
PAIR OF 321 STAINLESS STEEL TURBO HEADERS
TURBO HARDWARE AND
GASKETS

COST $7500.00

Available for 1s2/SBC short and tall deck and BBC short and tall deck.
