well hopefully you wont have any problems finding what you are looking for. As a suggestion from my costly experience, if you can locate long tube headers for your application and swap project, save up the cash and get them. Being able to mount an exhaust to something already under the car vs having to fabricate the stuff to get it under the car and back is MUCH MUCH easier to accomplish. But I am sure they wont come cheap. My s-10 headers for the LS swap long tube set would be right at 850 for the pair. But that is for 2 inch primaries also. smaller primaries make it a bit cheaper, but not really worth it if I had the cash. Get ONE set of headers that you can use with any upgrades you do from now on and be set...

After the first time of installing and wrestling with them to get them in, you will know exactly what to expect from then on.

1 last question

Power steering system
Will my steering box work with a newer pump
Or will I want to take a 4th gen steering box and replace my 3rd gen box with it
Then it's pretty much the same box that the power sterring pump was hooked up to originally
