Question 5.3 vs 6.2 heads/exhaust ports size and location

Do they have the same measurements?

Basically will a header for a 5.3 engine fit on a 6.2? Same for a turbo manifold? If our sponsers built a turbo manifold using a 5.3, will it bolt on to a 6.2 head?

Has anyone test fitted a log manifold like Trick's onto a new truck to see if they fit along with a turbo? Obviously the cross member and dp would be different but im wordering about the turbo manifold it self.

I cant find measurements of the engines/heads.

The bolt hole locations are the same and the manifolds fit fine. The actual exhaust port shape is different I think. I use 5.3 manifolds on my L92 heads.

The new engines have a different flange bolt pattern for the manifold/headers than the old LS stuff
