Default SLP Headers 98 Trans Am Automatic?

Can SLP Headers fit a 98 trans am with a auto tranny? i've been told it only fits standard tranny. If they don't can anyone recommend a ones that will fit. preferably long tube .

I don't see why they wouldn't. The transmissions share the same dimensions where the headers are concerned (I.E. the bellhousing). Where did you hear that from? LS1 headers fit LS1's, I've never heard of transmission specific ones.

Ahhh convertibles has extra bracing underneath thats why. They will fit any t-top or hard top car. You should be good to go with those. For the price however, I would HIGHLY recommend American Racing or Kooks. Better quality and fitment, and the SLP are known for hanging very low. It doesn't say if they are the new style or not, the newer style tucks up better.
