Have you checked Kooks or ARH? If not call them up, they both make custom headers.

MACs definately fit. i have an automatic and have MAC full-length headers on my car now. i'm trying to switch out to Pypes, since they're stainless steel and everyone says that they're MAC knockoffs, but i'm doing some research into whether they'll fit or not. i've only found one automatic guy that popped in and said that he got his Pypes to fit his auto, and i pmed him and am awaiting a reply. he didn't post that he had any trouble, so at this point, i'd guess that pypes will fit also

do you know if pypes will fit? the pics look identical, and MACs def fit (i have them). they're just rusting to hell, and i want to get something stainless steel on the car so that they're rust proof

Default pypes will fit an auto

pypes will fit an auto with minimal fuss. the only problem i had was having to dent one of the tubes near the starter so it wouldnt rub the bellhousing. i used their h-pipe and am very happy with their product. i couldnt really feel any power gain but i did pick up 3 miles per gallon. if anyone has any ?s please feel free to ask. (they were very much a pain in the a$$ to install though)

Default Pypes Headers and X-Pipe??

So will everyone agree that Pypes LT Headers and their X-Pipe fit my auto????
Plus their stainless, so they won't rust up on me.

Unfortunately even the stainless steel LT's will rust within a few years, especially if you're up north.
