I've never heard that for an auto, wonder what the reasoning behind it is? I'd say give em a call, here's my 5 speed with BBK lt's and their catted x-pipe & magnapack



Skip to about the 2:30 mark if you want to hear some from inside the car.

it was from american muscle, they said an automatic would have clearance issues, i don't see how, but it is what they told me, nice sounding car

Mac headers are the best by far.

Thanks. My bet's the transmission is bigger, best bet is call them and talk about what fits best.

In my opinion, Kook's Long Tube Headers..

kooks are good, ARH LTs are probably my pick for the best though.

+1 on ARH. They are the best, even better than Kooks. No fitting issues or clearance issues.
