Default '98 to '00 swap Question

Do I need to get the '98 or the '00 exhaust gaskets. I'm think in the '98 but want to be sure.
And I was also told that I would need the '00 EGR pipe, is this true or not. I'm so close to habeing this done I just need a few more bits of info. Thanks in advance.

For what? Are you talking about the exhaust manifolds or are you going to put the shorties from the 98 onto the 00 engine?

Are you doing an entire engine swapor just the splitport intake swap?

Check the sig. My '98 is pretty much ready for the Single-->Split Intake manifold swap.

And that being said,I have to install the '00 split-port heads. Which I have heard can take a bit of work to get to fit with the SN-95 exhaust, so my question is that seeing as I'm going to keep the '98 headers and say to hell with theEdge's log. I would use the '98 gaskets, yes?

Buy both sets and return the one that doesn't fit best.

I did look at your sig. That was why I asked the question, all it says is splitport swap in progress. That could mean an entire splitport engine or that could mean just the intake and heads. I would go ahead and use the 98 style gaskets.
