There is a guy down here that has a set and they are great. They fit up real nice and sound great. If I had to do it over agin and on a budget I would consider those.

I have the fully welded (not race style) headers on my 98. The race style have a bolt on collector, I didn't want to deal with the leaky collector. Compared to other headers, they are a great package. They come with gaskets, nice long 02 extensions, bolts, and emissions block offs. There Y pipe is top notch and comes with band style clamps and bungs if you want to weld in cats and rear O2s.

My car isn't running yet. My pass side header went in easy as pie, drivers side needed a little wiggling, but nothing crazy. My motor mounts were completely bolted up during install and I did NOT cut the casting tabs. The drivers side header is rubbing the motor mount pedestal as it sits. No one else has had this problem. I have a couple adjustments left to make, but I think I will have to end up denting the primary.

Thumbs up

My collectors are 3.5" ...the ORY is expanded at the end to fit over the collector--I had to expand it a touch more to go over it.......also.....the ory itself is actually 3 -1/4 " ..not 3" as they say..we measured many times and places....dr. side hangs a little lower than I like---if I did it again I would get a 2-/2" custom ory--might still do it...headers are great..good fit, look nice, nice welds...
