It has to do with the location of the EGR and Air connections to the headers. They'll fit, but you'll probably have to do some modification to the air lines, or buy them off an 00.

but you can have the speedo calibrated for your wheel and tire size. Dont be scared of the slp headers if you are getting a really good deal go for it. I have the old style slp headers and dont really have any problems with ground clearance and I am lowered also.

How much and in what condition are these headers?
My old SLP headers were rusting pretty good after a year on a fair weather car. Glad I don't have those anymore. Scraped them often as well...at stock ride height.
If the price is right...go for it. By right, I mean $250 or less. If they want more, get new Pacesetters for $400.

You will need the block off plates for the emissions fittings on the headers. If they have them. SLP had several versions of those headers.
Are you removing your EGR/AIR??

SLP headers I have seen. there have some different position for EGR and air fitting. also you make sure correct on what transmission you have.
I had SLP Headers for years. Yeah there had some scraped on it normally. Fast cool heat after you drive in any condition run.
