My first guess is no since most parts are for 99-04 but I am not an expert on them.

At least it's more erect and not floppy anymore.

you might want to do that, if they are shorties, dont bother. all stock exhaust maifolds are the same, and aftermarket shorty headers aren't worth it, with no gain.

At first I thought you asked if you can swap stock headers from a 97 to a 2000. More info on your post would of been helpful

Seems like this always comes up about the shorties.

Shorties=

Maybe for FI cars but n/a will net you very little. Money can be better spent else where
