Default headers

Ive got a set of bbk long tube headers for a fox body and was curious if they would work on my 95 GT. If not ill just sell them and get what I need.

You would run into issues. 1st the steering rack and 2nd the clutch fork. I would just buy sn95 headers to avoid the headaches.

Js is right, You will have to raise the engine off of the motor mounts and do some dimpling to the headers. I also had to make some modifications to make it fit the Off Road H pipe. It will work, but it will take alot of work and Patients to do it. The next time I pull my engine I will go back to the shorty headers. Mac

Thats ANY longtube headers!

The only difference in fox headers and sn are the egr pipe location! If you dare contest this buy a set of both and check it out!

If you have a steering shaft clearance you may want to look to see wtf is wrong!

If you buy cheap headers you get fitment issues but there are wonderful things like steering shaft adjustments that can be done if you use really big primary headers like 1 7/8 and up....


oh and btw is that a surface warefare pin?
