I just ordered myself some Full lenght 30" Hooker Longtube headers and an Off-road X-pipe. The guy I bought them from says they will fit my car, but I am a little unsure-They will be getting professionally installed but i want to know if everythign will be ok. I am unsure of what the previous vehicle they were on was, and I have read/seen different headers for 2V and 4V heads- Why is this and what the hell is the difference. Would 1 5/8" vs. 1 3/4" Primary tubes make much of a difference? Will they both Fit fine?

I got these in great condition for cheap it was a steal, so I am hoping all goes well. Please get back to me ASAP with any information you may have for headers and the ORX pipe

2 valve heads have round exhaust ports and 4 valve heads have oval/rectangular shaped exhaust ports...

I told you the difference...one has round holes going into the primary tubes and one has rectangular holes...physically they won't line up with the wrong kind of head...

If you bought 4V hooker headers they should fit your car...
