SN95 headers on a Fox?

[88 Fox GT]

I have a set of used BBK headers for a 94-95 5.0, if I plug the hole for the EGR on it, can I use these headers on my Fox? I mean they are only shorties, but I just don't know if they will have clearance issues with anything.

I'm running Fox BBK LTs on my SN95, they're the same except for the EGR bung. Just go to the plumbing section of home depot and get a 5\8" threaded cap for the EGR port and you'll be good to go.

Yep, looks like they will fit. I just gotta cap the EGR hole on them. Thanks.

So, as far as I can tell, these BBKs are about the same length as the stock headers. Will my exhaust bolt right up or what? If so, I will go ahead and install them.

yes the exhaust will bolt right up but try loosenin the flang where the h/x meets the muffs so u can make an adjustments needed.

The flange on the stock drivers side header is f'ed up so it has a small leak, so I am definitely going to be replacing them soon.

Well the exhaust won't bolt up to the headers. So, now I need to either take it back to the exhaust shop and have the flanges changed or put the stock headers back on. Great.

My dipstick tube bracket also broke off so I gotta find a new one. I swear everytime I try to modify/work on this car it turns out in failure. Thinking of selling it.
