Default header difference?

what is different between 98-99 and 00-02 headers? is it the placement of a.i.r. fittings or is it a fitment issue in the car?

I believe the difference is the 98-99 cars have EGR and the 00-02 cars do not.

2000's still have EGR. i just took it all off when i did headers. makes things simpler.

i don't think i could hook up the egr/air on my headers if i tried. the bungs are in the wrong places. must be 98-99 style but since i have blockoff plates on it all anyway it doesn't matter.

I didn't realize that, thanks for the correction. x1000 on it makes things more simple.

I believe headers for a 98-99 F-body are the same. A 2000 F-body has the EGR connection in a slightly different location on the passenger header than the previous two years. And the 01-02 cars are without an EGR altogether. If you go with headers without emmisions fittings (off-road) the year of the car no longer applies.

01-02 did not have egr. get the non emissions ones so you dont have to worry about the little pipes breaking off.
