    I was informed all x-members are the same wether it be for a 350 or 455.. I swapped in a 455 n added the MT Scavenger headers while using my original x-member. Turns out the humps for the x-member were too narrow n I had to pound the humps a bit wider to fit the headers...Anyone else with the same issue??
    My vin starts with 4333------ indicates it was a 6 cylinder car. Would this original x-member be the same as a 350 or 455 car??

    Thanks

    My understanding is that the difference was based on transmission type. Turbo 350 and turbo 400 crossmembers fit same and will interchange, but there was a difference in the placement of a hole to hold a hanger for the e-brake cable. I believe the manual trans crossmembers may have been different. Was the 6 cyl car a manual trans car?

    I have not had any trouble with headers in our skylarks. 350 or 455, with any brand headers.
